4515.0. "128-bit security (US version)" by NETRIX::"[email protected]" (Harry Heinisch) Tue Mar 04 1997 08:58

Is there a US version available from IBG or other internal sources which
 supports the 128-bit RSA encryption? Some people in my office area need this
to communicate with certain sites. Any help galdly accepted.

A US version of what exactly?

Maybe you have crossed wires anyway, if you mean the
AltaVista Tunnel products, because they (all, both US
and non-US) use 512 bit RSA.  They use 40 or 128 bit 
RC4.  It is very unlikely that you will see a
download site for the 128 bit version within Digital
until your government drops the restrictions on the
export of encryption technology ...

	There are 128bit Netscape Kits available, but they are NOT available
  directly.  If you have a NEED for one, contact Greg Caetano directly.  I
  believe that you will have to be in the US or Canada to get one.  There may
  be other restrictions.
