Here is web site for a Russian company that markets cryptographic devices and algorithms of all sorts.

NOT SO LONG ago now, putting this stuff out there for folks to see and EVEN PURCHASE would have earned a Russian a very speedy and final trip to a dungeon. A bullet in the back of the neck from a KGB executioner being the inevitable consequence.

Cryptographic secrets, devices, algorithms were ONCE only the purview of the most senior officials and military commanders. NOT any more. Obligatory for even the average citizen?

The Russians do come up with some interesting stuff. Pocket calculator stuff with strong and secure cryptographics of extraordinary power. What was once available only to a FEW is now available to most everyone!

Here is the pocket calculator called the ANCRIPT.




And here is the follow-up version, caled the ANCRIPT-II.



Amazing stuff.
