Cellcrypt Mobile 5.5 Awarded UK's CESG Claims Tested Mark

By Anil Sharma, TMCnet Contributor


The latest version of Cellcrypt Mobile 5.5, for both BlackBerry (News - Alert) Bold 9000 and Nokia E71 smartphones, has been awarded the CESG Claims Tested Mark (CCTM) certification.


"Our new category of Mobile and Remote Working products at CCTM continues to expand with the addition of Cellcrypt (News - Alert) Mobile Version 5.5," said Peter Hayes, head of the CCTM Secretariat (ISC), in a statement.

Hayes said that an easy to use, encrypted voice calling product brings welcome assurance for buyers across the wider public sector.

A CCTM certificate for Information Assurance means that UK public sector organizations, including Central Government, local authorities, NHS, education, criminal justice, police and MoD, can recognize a product that has had independent testing, under CESG authority.

In addition "many private sector suppliers" noted Hayes, "are adopting CCTM certificated products in their solutions for their own government customers."

Officials with Cellcrypt said that CCTM features as a recognized certification in the CESG Good Practice Guides and the HMG IA (Her Majesty's Government Information Assurance) Standards.

Hayes said that buying an IA product from commercial vendors becomes a good deal easier when the buyer can see this CESG kite mark.

Company officials said that this is the second government-granted certification that Cellcrypt has been awarded this year after it earlier announced that its cryptographic module (Ccore) had been granted Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-2 certification (No. 1310) by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology.

Ccore is used in a range of Cellcrypt products including mobile phone and gateway applications.

"In our business, customers demand absolute trust in the products they choose to acquire and the vendors who provide those products," said Richard Greco (News - Alert), CEO at Cellcrypt.

"We can see how CESG's CCTM Certification provides important assurance to our customers that they are making  the right choice in selecting Cellcrypt to secure their conversations.”

Cellcrypt is a provider of military-grade voice call encryption on off-the-shelf mobile phones – including BlackBerry and Nokia (News - Alert) smartphones – that enables secure calling to mobile phones and office phone systems (PBXs) to allow landline calling as well as access to standard PBX (News - Alert) features such as voicemail, conference calling and calling out to the public phone network.
