Two More Defence Departments in Europe Choose Sectra's Tiger Encryptor
28 January 2010
Sectra has signed contracts worth SEK10m ($1,4m) with two European defence departments for the supply of Tiger XS for encrypted telephony.
Tiger XS is a personal voice encryptor that protects telephone calls from eavesdropping over telephone lines, GSM, 3G, ISDN and IP networks as well as via satellite systems. Tiger is certified by the EU, NATO and several national security bodies, making it the most secure product in the market for encrypted telephony.
"European defence departments are demanding user-friendly crypto products that can be used for communicating securely and protect a nation's security," says Michael Bertilsson, president of Sectra Communications. "Tiger XS satisfies these requirements and protects telephone calls over many different communication networks from eavesdropping, regardless of the Tiger user's geographical location in the world."
Sectra Tiger is currently used by government authorities and defence departments in more than half of the EU member states in order to protect telephone calls from eavesdropping. At the request of the customers concerned and for security policy reasons, no detailed information about the customer or the contracts is being disclosed in this case.
