Cryptophone Benefits

What are the benefits of Cryptophone over other secure telephony solutions?

1. Up to date equipment.
   Cryptophones use hardened versions of up-to-date hardware from top-quality vendors. GSMK tests and ensures that each new product works with all other GSMK products, so you get a verified, modern phones which work. New models are added often, and users individual needs are catered for by differing product models.
2. No support structure required.
   Cryptophone products use one-time keys, destroyed at the end of the call. The method of verifying correct keys is secure, and also does not require external infrastructure or teams or personnel devoted to keeping your keys up-to-date and secure. For many larger clients running competing products, this is a significant saving in itself.
3. No reliance on stored keys.
   As keys are only used once and destroyed as soon as the call ends, you don't need to worry about loss of your phone compromising your previous conversations, or revealing your private information. In addition, your keys cannot be monitored and re-used by external parties - each conversation is as secure as the last.
4. Flexibility.
   GSMK Cryptophone mobile phones can be configured to connect to email servers and perform all normal smartphone functionality (this is not recommended in high security environments) so those users with the most need for communication and security aren't required to use multiple devices.
5. Integrated Product Suite.
   Our products interoperate seamless, whether they are fixed line, mobile, satellite or VoIP. This allows large-scale deployments without interfering with the way you operate in your organisation. It also means in-field personnel can easily communicate securely with head-office personnel, using the most cost-effective method for each. For highly mobile workforces, and those using multiple methods of voice communication, this is critical to ensuring the most value is obtained from your secure telephony.
6. Security.
   GSMK Cryptophones products use best practice implementation of the most secure algorithms available today. Also, using the verification method prevents man-in-the-middle attacks. No other voice security product combines the security and flexibility of the GSMK Cryptophone encryption implementation. And, unlike some products, this method is used for the entire product line, not just selected products.
7. Hardened Operating Systems.
   All our products where using commercial operating systems have had security evaluation of the OS and hardening processes applied. These options can be configured on all mobile products, such that users can enjoy secure communications whilst still enjoying the flexibility of their device to be used for other purposes (this is not recommended in high security environments).
8. Security from Commercial to Military levels.
   Depending on their users, clients may have differing security needs for each application. Using Cryptophone, those devices can be configured as needed, and are functional and useful even without their security functionality.
9. Special Products.
   For specific customers with special needs and high volumes, we can work with customers to develop a product meeting their needs yet still providing the industry leading capabilities and interoperability that typify the Cryptophone solutions.
