Encryption has played vital role in information security in wireless network. To enable users to get the most out of their smartphones, Cellcrypt (News - Alert) , a provider of encrypted voice calling on mobile phones, today announced that it has launched a full-duplex version of its Cellcrypt Mobile for BlackBerry encrypted voice calling application for CDMA networks.

According to a press release, full-duplex allows simultaneous two-way communication compared to half-duplex that provides two-way communication that is not simultaneous (i.e. "walkie-talkie" style).

"Cellcrypt is unique in the industry in overcoming significant technical challenges to deliver the industry's first full-duplex BlackBerry (News - Alert) secure voice calling solution on CDMA," said Richard Greco, CEO of Cellcrypt. "Not only is this testament to Cellcrypt's world-leading innovation in secure voice calling solutions for commercial off-the-shelf smart phones, but this latest update is spectacular in that it provides outstanding performance and seamless interoperability with many other devices on both CDMA and GSM networks, globally."

Cellcrypt Mobile is used by governments and corporations around the world and is a downloadable application for off-the-shelf smartphones that offers end-to-end encryption of voice calls over cellular (2G, 3G, 4G), Wi-Fi and satellite network.

Cellcrypt Mobile uses cryptography certified to the U.S. government National Institute of Standards and Technology FIPS 140-2 security standard and has been awarded the CESG Claims Tested Mark (CCTM) from the U.K. government's information assurance authority. Cellcrypt Mobile for BlackBerry version 6.1.1 and above supports full-duplex on CDMA and is available immediately on BlackBerry Bold 9650 and BlackBerry Style 9670 smartphones from Verizon (News - Alert) running BlackBerry OS 6.0.524.
