Unique crypto product for Europe's decision-makers: Sectra's Tiger receives dual
security approvals

Sectra's Tiger system for eavesdrop-secure telephone conversations has been
certified by NATO's military committee for communications up to and including
the high security level NATO SECRET. Last year, the same system was certified by
the EU. Consequently, Tiger now has dual security approvals which give Sectra a
unique position in the European market.

“The security approval is unique and will simplify daily work for our European
customers with NATO membership. Decision-makers with EU and NATO membership are
now able to use our Tiger system to eavesdrop-secure all telephone calls,” says
Jan-Olof Brüer, President and CEO of Sectra.

Last year, the Council of the European Union approved Sectra's Tiger XS for
communication of EU-classified information. Sectra is still the only company to
offer a system that protects both fixed and mobile telecommunications up to and
including the high security level SECRET UE. 

Tiger protects European telephone conversations
Tiger products protect telephone calls for decision-makers, officials and
military staff in more than half of the EU's 27 member states. Protecting
telephone conversations is the main function of the Tiger XS but it is also used
to secure fax and data transfers. The possibilities to choose network are
numerous. Telephone calls can be protected over ordinary telephone lines, GSM,
ISDN and IP networks as well as via satellite systems.
