Based on the company's iPower data-security technology, National Semiconductor's (Sunnyvale, CA) PersonaCard 100 ($249) works with wired, wireless, secured, and unsecured networks. The PCMCIA card processes all security procedures directly rather than relying on the network to secure your data. Features include RSA Data Security's public-key-encryption-technology architecture; an SPU (security processing unit) that creates, stores, and manages the RSA keys and algorithms; an on-board 5-year battery; and an optional PersonaPort card reader ($209) for use with PCs without a PCMCIA slot. A silicon fire wall protects the SPU from electrical and physical hazards.

Flexible C++

My approach to software engineering is far more pragmatic than it
is
theoretical--and no language better exemplifies this than C++.
