RSA says its product is designed to simplify and reduce development time, letting Ericsson get wireless products to market faster. RSA is also going to work with VeriSign to leverage RSA's high performance encryption in reduced code size for customers who use RSA products in the wireless and PDA markets. Verisign also made a deal with Openwave Systems, in which Openwave will integrate VeriSign's digital certificate and signature technology into Openwave's WAP-enabled microbrowser and server products.

Marina Donovan, an RSA Security Inc. vice president who is managing the conference, said she also expected a lot of discussion on developing an industry standard for securing transactions over wireless devices.
