Czech Decision-Makers Protect Phone Calls Against Eavesdropping During EU Presidency
24 February 2009
Several Czech ministries and governmental offices have procured Sectra’s crypto product Tiger XS. Decision-makers and senior governmental officials have been able to use this product to secure their mutual exchange of sensitive and classified information since the commencement of the Czech EU presidency, which extends from January through June 2009.
“Our effort in the European government market continues and the Czech Republic is the fourth nation to order Tiger XS in connection with an EU presidency. This is the first major transaction in which we are able to see the strong influence of the recently received NATO approval of the Tiger XS,” says Michael Bertilsson, president of Sectra Communications.
In every other EU country there’s a Tiger
Tiger products are used by decision-makers, officials and the military in more than half of all EU member countries to protect telephone conversations. Sectra is the only company that offers a product for voice communication that is certified by both the EU and NATO. Telephone calls are protected over ordinary telephone lines, GSM, ISDN and IP networks as well as via satellite systems. The Tiger XS can also be used for encrypted telefax and secure data transfers.
