Anyone here know anything about the patents registered by Leon Stambler?
He has 7 patents going back to 1992 on mechanisms for digital
signatures, integrity checks etc. Apparently his lawyers are writing to
companies implementing SSL, SET etc claiming they infringe his patents.

The main patent is:
