Cellcrypt secures voice communications on Windows Mobile devices

Cellcrypt Ltd, a leading supplier of voice security solutions, today announced the release of Cellcrypt Mobile™ v4.0 that provides end-to-end voice encryption on Nokia Smartphones and, for the first time, on a range of Windows Mobile devices.

“It is common for organisations and individuals to protect their valuable computer data using encryption technologies; but by and large sensitive voice conversations are only lightly protected and vulnerable to eavesdropping,” says Lauri Monroy, Product Manager at Cellcrypt.

“Use of Cellcrypt Mobile provides the confidence that phone calls, whether in the mobile or office environment, at home or overseas, within or between departments and with partners, suppliers and friends, are all protected end-to-end. The addition of Windows Mobile to Cellcrypt’s list of supported operating systems allows customers far more flexibility in their choice of existing and new handsets,” adds Monroy.

Cellcrypt Mobile 4.0 delivers a radical change in the way sensitive conversations are protected on mobile phones, ensuring you can talk in complete confidence wherever you are on the latest commercially available handsets. Cellcrypt Mobile is a next generation software solution that is easy to download and run on standard mobile phones and uses Voice over IP (VOIP) to deliver secure phone calls with unparalleled voice quality, low voice delays (latency), global coverage and international call capability across 3G or GPRS mobile networks and Wifi.

Cellcrypt uses the same well established and trusted, encryption technologies to protect voice communications that are used to protect laptops, corporate data and internet banking transactions.

Cellcrypt is starting certification to the FIPS 140-2 standard approved by the US National Institute of Standard (NIST) and is currently being evaluated for the UK government CCT Mark.

Cellcrypt Ltd is a leader in personal integrity and encryption solutions for voice communications. Cellcrypt’s secure VOIP technologies address the need of enterprises and governments for easy to manage yet robust, privacy and voice encryption.

Portendo launches P.Eye explosives detector at Counter Terror Expo ’09 in London

Swedish threat detection and security technology company Portendo launches its new product P.Eye at the Counter Terror Expo ’09 in London, 10-11th of February. The P.Eye standoff threat detector, based on Portendo’s proprietary technology, can detect and identify explosives in a matter of seconds from a distance of up to 50 metres.

Airports, power plants and other potential civilian targets experience an ever increasing terrorist threat, creating a high demand for systems like the Portendo P.Eye, says Peter Strömbeck, VP Product Management at Portendo.

When integrated with existing perimeter protection, the unit offers a powerful security solution for public buildings and other exposed civilian targets. Mounted on a military vehicle, the P.Eye becomes a mobile detection unit capable of identifying potential threats in the surrounding area.

The P.Eye represents the first commercial product with standoff threat detection technology of this kind, which means that there’s a substantial market potential, says Peter Strömbeck. Its versatility together with the accurate long distance readings makes the P.Eye an effective security solution for counter-terrorism.

The P.Eye has been developed in co-operation with the Swedish Defence Research Agency (FOI). Its technology is based on Raman spectroscopy, which provides a molecular signature of hazardous agents enabling immediate long-range detection and identification of explosives. The first P.Eye prototype has been delivered to BAE Systems Bofors, the world’s third largest defence company, for test integration in weapons and sensor platforms. The P.Eye Pre-series, available today, offers clients a chance to experience the capability and potential of a custom-made unit solution.

The P.Eye will be on display at Portendo’s stand C76 during both days of the Counter Terror Expo. Daniel Svensson, Portendo’s VP of Marketing, will give a speech on Standoff Explosives Detection to Counter the Terror Threat on Tuesday the 10th of February in connection with the Counter Terror Expo.

Portendo develops and markets threat detection equipment for homeland security, military and commercial security industries. Portendo’s patent-pending technology can increase safety and operational capability in high-risk environments by providing quick and reliable detection of explosives, warfare agents and hazardous chemicals. The technology has been developed in collaboration with several high-ranking research institutes and has produced world-leading results. The company is privately owned and was founded in 2005.
