Notable enough?
editIs there any particular reason why this company is significant, other than one of our users happens to work there? If not, this page should be deleted. Wikipedia is not a company listing. --Robert Merkel
- It's a real, reasonably large company where useful information can be added. I see no reason not to have it here. --Eloquence 00:36 Jan 20, 2003 (UTC)
- Eloquence never seems to have a problem with including anything and everything here. Just what would you think shouldn't be here? -- Zoe
- Well, the company was founded by Ivan Damgård which is one of the guys behind hashes as we know them today. See Merkle-Damgård construction etc. However see my warning in the next section. --David Göthberg 15:17, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
- Good question. I work for the company and ask you kindly to consider the section I just added on Awards and Recognition - I hope that answers the question posed above as well as complies to the guidelines on conflict of interest: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:BFAQ#EDIT. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mattlandrock (talk • contribs) 14:17, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
Warning, company edited article
editThis article has been heavily edited and extended by what seems to be employees of this company. This goes against Wikipedia policy. But this company might be notable enough since it was founded by Ivan Damgård. So for now instead of requesting it deleted I will just edit away the parts that could be considered "sales speach". (Which is pretty much all of it.) --David Göthberg 15:17, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
Vincent Rijmen
editVincent Rijmen is the co-author of the Rijndael encryption algorithm that became the Advanced Encryption Standard. The Vincent Rijmen page says he works for Cryptomathic, but perhaps that has to be verified. Raffen (talk) 07:26, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
Added references
editI went through the page and added references where necessary. As the Crypthomathic employees frequently publish in peer-reviewed journals, it was not difficult to gather the information needed. I tried to be to the point and not to overdo it. If you think there are still sections requiring substantiation, please inform me. I also made sure that there is not sales talk left. (I am not an employee of this company and want to make sure that the article satisfies Wikipedia requirements).
