ANNOUNCEMENT: RPK SECURITY ANNOUNCES RPK ENCRYPTONITE GLOBAL REPRESENTATIVE PROGRAM FOR ENCRYPTION TECHNOLOGY

[Jack Oswald]

Just to be clear (and I am just helping !Effective clarify) is that the firm
is a consulting firm with the goal of helping companies go from !(not)
Effective to Effective.  It is not the name of a security product.  I agree
that it is a bit too esoteric but except for geeks like us who "speak" in
programming languages, most of their target audience only sees it as a
variant of Spanish punctuation ;)
