Incidentally, "Netscum" is a reference to Netscape Communications Corporation. They introduced SSL. This company was founded to commercialise a web browser, called NCSA Mosaic, that was originally co-written by venture capitalist Marc Andreesen of a16z.com as part of an academic project at U. of Illinois. The name "Mosaic" refers to its support for a variety of internet protocols, not all of them web-based. Netscum code-named their derivative browser "Mozilla", marketed under names like "Navigator" and "Communicator". Fearing the growth of the web, Microsoft acquired rights to use the NCSA Mosaic code and produced a derivative browser called "Internet Explorer", which they included as part of Windows. As web use grew, Mozilla Foundation, who inherited rights to publish the Netscape source code, added a "search box" to their derivative browser called "Firefox" and started directing search queries to Google, receiving large payouts in return. Mozilla Corporation was formed. Google later hired developers from Mozilla to write another derivative browser called "Chrome".
