Rather than a list of user's of the HW crypto feature, would not the security/certification level of the IBM processor's be even more impressive?

I'd like to present to some guys a list of banks / companies using IBM crypto hardware for PIN verification. Just to prove that mainframe crypto HW is secure enough to provide such services. To show this is not experiment, rather industry standard. To prove that mainframe is reliable, secure, proven platform ;-) It need not be official list, so if someone wants to contact me off-list and say "hey, I'm working for ABC-bank, we are using crypto-HW for PIN verification for years"... The largest company the better ;-) -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland -- BRE Bank SA ul. Senatorska 18 00-950 Warszawa www.brebank.pl Sd Rejonowy dla m. st.
