SANTA CLARA, Calif.-Wireless enabling technology developer JP Systems Inc. and e-commerce security provider Certicom Corp. have expanded their relationship to enhance JP System’s SureWave platform with Certicom’s WTLS Plus security technology.
As part of the agreement, JP Systems will embed Certicom’s MobileTrust Certificate Authority root certificate in the SureWave platform for Palm Inc. personal digital assistants.
