Defense departments in Europe choose Tiger

Sectra has signed contracts with two European defense departments concerning
Tiger XS for encrypted telephony. The total order value is SEK 10 million.


Tiger XS is a personal voice encryptor that protects telephone calls from
eavesdropping over telephone lines, GSM, 3G, ISDN and IP networks as well as via
satellite systems. Tiger is certified by the EU, NATO and several national
security bodies, making it the most secure product in the market for encrypted
telephony.

“European defense departments are demanding user-friendly crypto products that
can be used for communicating securely and which thus protect nation's security.
Tiger XS satisfies these requirements and protects telephone calls over many
different communication networks from eavesdropping, regardless of the Tiger
user's geographical location in the world,” says Michael Bertilsson, President
of Sectra Communications.

Sectra Tiger is currently used by government authorities and defense departments
in more than half of all EU member states in order to protect telephone calls
from eavesdropping. At the request of the customers concerned and for security
policy reasons, no detailed information about the customer or the contracts is
being disclosed in this case.
