SecureMobile
SecureMobile is an end-to-end communications security solution built on top of our SAIFE framework and infrastructure on unmodified commodity hardware to provide secure communication and data sharing over any network.
Easy-to-use government-grade Tactical Secret encryption for Sensitive-but-Unclassified operations, whether military or commercial. SecureMobile overcomes the traditional Type 1 issues by providing a software-only solution, yet allowing Tactical Secret communications on a wide variety of readily deployable OEM devices. Unlike its competitors, SecureMobile tolerates no man-in-the-middle; all communications are sent peer-to-peer via the wireless carrier’s network, and all communications are encrypted such that only the intended peer device may read the data. Additionally, the SecureMobile solution follows National Security Agency (NSA) best practices, implements the NSA Suite B protocol set, and was architected from inception to provide the best security possible on commodity hardware. Maximum flexibility is provided through the SAIFE provisioning system, SAIFE-Management. The Distributed SAIFE Management infrastructure provides on the fly trust, contact list, and contact group management, as well as compromise recovery with remote wipe. Designed with and for tactical operators, the SecureMobile system meets a variety of mission needs for today’s unconventional warfare and other environments.
Ease of Use
If you are like us, you want secure communication and you want it to be as easy as selecting a contact and hitting the dial button. You don’t want to go through a series of complex steps, you don’t want to learn a yet another program interface, you don’t want to setup another server on your network, and you don’t want to spend hours maintaining your security software. Keep your focus on what you do best and let us do what we do best: make sure your data is safe and secure.
Simple, Secure
Making a Secure Call
From any screen in Secure Mobile, pressing the Contacts button will allow you to select a contact and initiate a Secure Voice call. A Secure Voice call uses the current-fastest data network (in order of WiFi, 3G or 2G) to which you are connected to connect an encrypted Voice-over-IP call to the recipient.
Receiving a Secure Voice Call
When your phone receives a voice call, the Secure Mobile application appears prompting you to answer or ignore the call.
Sending a Secure Instant Message
Similar to making a secure call, press the Contacts button and select a contact to initiate a Secure Instant Message. Secure Instant Messages are protected with the same level of encryption as the Secure Voice calls.
Connectivity
Use your local network, cellular data plan, public WiFi hotspot, satellite connection, or your own custom network with a satellite back-haul to public services. Our secure connection protocol communicates across any network medium and configuration. You just need to click the contact, SecureMobile takes care of the rest.
Transition from one network to another, change mediums, change providers, all without losing your secure session. Your secure connection is maintained by the SAIFE Continuum service. Your existing secure session transitions seamlessly to your new network location, with complete cryptographic authentication and integrity, all without establishing a new secure connection. If you completely lose network connectivity the SAIFE Continuum network service holds on to any important data until your device reconnects to the network and can receive them. You will never lose data, miss a security update, miss a configuration change, or a remote wipe.
Avoid impact to your IT infrastructure. Devices can connect through complex network topologies automatically using our Black Connection Gateways. No need to open up firewall ports or create special network routing that can create security vulnerabilities. You and your contacts will always be able to connect, regardless of where in the world you are or what network is carrying your packets.
If you don’t need yet another server on your network use our public internet servers instead. They don’t have access to your sensitive data and provide a complete secure tunnel from end-to-end. Optionally you can license your own private server from us and deploy it on your own public or isolated network.
Scalability
Remotely administer as many devices as needed with a seamless growth path. Remote administration of all the devices is made even easier with standardized templates for you to use as-is or customize for the provisioning of each device’s configuration, key material, and policy enforcement settings.
The administrative and infrastructure components scale hierarchically to allow you to support an arbitrary number of SecureMobile devices for your small organization or your international enterprise. No VPN aggregator bottlenecks, no server congestion, no single point of failure.
Since the SAIFE framework provides connectivity and data transport without the need for application-specific servers (voice, messaging, or data), your SecureMobile products never run into the bottlenecks that can occur with large numbers of devices.
Trust
Agile trust management enables you to rapidly respond to changing conditions by creating and deleting secure enclaves and groups as needed. Within minutes you can populate the secure contact lists and begin communicating securely. Brand new SecureMobile devices can be provisioned in the field using existing provisioned devices that have been given permission to add new devices to the secure enclave.
