Across the wires this morning comes news from Kim and Stefan that Microsoft has acquired Credentica‘s U-Prove technology and the services of Stefan and his Credentica colleagues. I’m curious as to why the news isn’t simply ‘Microsoft acquires Credentica’, but business is sometimes like that, I guess.
Anyway, congratulations to Stefan and co! I’ve been following their technology for a few years now (I even worked my way through Stefan’s book – well, most of it – some of the formal proofs were a little beyond my mathematical abilities) and have met Stefan and Greg a couple of times – super guys, cool technology – it will be great to see it get wider exposure.
