Tiger/S Handles Voice and Data Comms to Secret Level

A Finnish government agency has ordered multiple units of Sectra’s Tiger/S mobile encryption solution, the company confirmed on 10 May.

The solution enables users to securely and efficiently communicate classified information up to and including Secret level. “It is crucial for us to always be able to communicate classified information, regardless of where and when it is needed. Our users also need to feel confident in the products they are using when discussing sensitive topics. Hence, we chose Sectra’s encryption solution since it is approved and used by similar government organisations in other EU countries,” a government official stated.

Sectra Tiger/S is a quantum-resilient mobile phone, approved by national security authorities, NATO and the EU, for use up to and including Secret level. It allows users to share classified information through encrypted speech, messaging and data transfer, and offers high availability, as it can use a variety of IP networks, such as satellite, fixed and mobile networks, for all types of communication.

“Given the unstable security situation in Europe, there is an increased need within many organisations for secure and approved solutions that can facilitate the exchange of highly classified information. This order shows that our solutions meet these high demands and thereby ensure that the exchanged information stays secure at all times,” explained Pekka Nurhonen, VP of Sectra Communications OY.
