CryptoCard, an authentication specialist, announced new software that now supports Research In Motion's BlackBerry devices. Rather than just using simple passwords, Crypto-Server 6.4 creates two-factor random authentication. The new version is also speedier, simpler to administer, and has laptop support, officials said. The software is available now and starts at just a few hundred dollars, though RIM officials insist that BlackBerrys are safe enough.
