Denmark orders encryption modules
Dencrypt has received a $4.5 million contract from the Danish Ministry of Defence for the delivery of encryption modules for classified information based on the Dynamic Encryption principle, it was announced on 12 May.
The contract covers maintenance, support, documentation, further development, certification and delivery of crypto-modules for mobile phones and other platforms for the protection of classified information.
The module is based on Denmark's Dynamic Encryption principle of stronger-than-standard encryption that is robust against crypt analysis the company stated. Denmark's armed forces have been using the system for over a year and the contract marks a major step in expanding this system with added functionality and supporting the mobile workplace.
Søren Sennels, chief executive officer, Dencrypt, said: ‘For Dencrypt, this agreement is a major milestone and we are proud to be the preferred encryption supplier to the Danish armed forces. It underlines how our encryption technology offers the highest protection for the most sensitive information against IT-criminals and state-controlled espionage.
‘The contract is an important development to further strengthen Dencrypt and to expand our activities in Denmark and abroad. The system is used by both government offices and private companies.’
