With so much attention on the security of information today, did we forget about eavesdropping on phone lines?
A brief video on the need for secure telephony can be found by clicking the graphic below.
Over the past two decades, telecommunications interception has developed into a major industry. Intelligence agencies and private organisations within many countries routinely intercept calls that may yield sensitive political, military or economic information. With new tools, and technologies available over the internet and for low cost, almost anyone can obtain and use 'bugging' equipment once only envisioned in spy movies.
The use of wiretapping has become so widespread, simple and uncontrolled that you must assume that audio of your private calls may end up in the wrong hands. Equipment for wireless interception of mobile phone calls has become available at such low prices that it is deployed frequently even in comparatively small business conflicts. So using encryption to protect your privacy is the prudent choice. Those organisations operating through regional offices in various locations should be aware of the risks involved in communicating over unsecured fixed line or mobile phones - in some cases local industry is helped by interception done by the government itself!
But protecting your information with strong and trustworthy encryption has become difficult. "Proprietary" or "Secret" algorithms of dubious quality, and encryption that is too weak to protect against modern computing power are commonplace in the telecommunications market. These 'Snake Oil' products are masked by marketing efforts, suggesting that you need to rely on "the secrecy of the algorithm" or "government classification" - certified by the same intelligence agencies that are actually in charge of telecommunications interception. Whether a product is actually secure is extremely difficult to establish without detailed knowledge of the product, and a security background. The situation has become so bad that some security luminaries have become devoted to sniffing out and exposing 'Snake Oil' security.
Now there is a solution that you can trust, because it can be verified by you or by your experts. GSMK CryptoPhones, the first secure phones that come with full source code available for independent review are available now. Finally, you can perform an independent assessment to ensure that there is no weak encryption and no backdoors in the device you entrust your telecommunications security to. You don't have to believe us when we say it is secure - you can verify that claim yourself.
GSMK CryptoPhones are not black-box-devices with scarce technical information, like other products in the market. We will give you all the support necessary for your organisation to verify the trust we have in GSMK Cryptophones for yourself. Putting trust where it belongs - in a trustworthy, open and scientific verification process.
GSMK CryptoPhone technology is based on well-researched algorithms for both encryption and voice processing: The strongest encryption available combined with key lengths that provide peace of mind today and in the future. GSMK CryptoPhones encrypt your calls with the two algorithms that are regarded strongest by the cryptographic community - AES and Twofish.
The GSMK Cryptophone suite of products is also unique in the market by providing support for secure communication over all commonly used methods, including mobile, fixed line, satellite, and VoIP. Fitting into any environment, with varied applications from personal and commercial through to military uses.
