EAST PALO ALTO, Calif--IBM unveiled two free security tools for software developers that are designed to enhance automatic data encryption and to increase security for Java applications.
Big Blue on Thursday said it is adding the tools to AlphaWorks, a 10-year-old online program that offers free software tools, as the company looks to beef up its security offerings.
"Our customers are saying, '(cyber)criminals are organized, and we aren't,'" Stuart McIrvine, IBM director of corporate security strategy, said during an SDForum security conference here.
One of the new tools, AlphaWorks' IBM Secure Shell Library for Java, automatically encrypts data, including passwords and data in files, as it moves from one computer to another.
