Abstract :
A company has developed a new encryption technology that provides protection not found in current encryption systems. BlueGem Security´s LocalSSL prevents hackers from using keylogger tools to intercept and view user keystrokes. LocalSSL, currently deployed in South Korea, uses 128-bit encryption on the transmissions resulting from keystrokes. The technology is BlueGem´s locally implemented version of the Secure Sockets Layer encryption scheme for Internet communications. BlueGem has three products, each named for the type of applications it protects: LocalSSL Internet, LocalSSL Email, and LocalSSL Microsoft Office.
