Security 

  • Protection of the source and destination address from hacking attacks through encryption of the header via software, which in turn provides the denial of traffic analysis. This is accomplished through Secureant’s proprietary technology
  • Encryption of the payload (agnostic encryption - AES, DES, etc.)
  • One-Time Pad encryption
  • Low cost, scalable, interoperable, and agnostic
  • Dynamic Key Exchange Management
  • Authentication
  • Authorization Technology
  • Software designed - not hardware dependent
Secureant relies upon AES for its standard encryption yet has stub code to make the technology encryption agnostic (e.g.: able to use on-the-fly key management exchanges for AES, DES, Blowfish, etc.). This encryption is used on the voice and data rather than on the headers itself. Deployment of this system would include a way to push new encryption algorithms out to a device on a group or geographic basis rather than on a per user basis.

Our technology encrypts the header by changing the addressing on a per packet basis and utilizing non-critical segments of the header to encode information.  The method used by Secureant to generate the header modulation is the use of a onetime pad generated from a one way hash algorithm and a random seed.

Q1. Does anyone have the technology to encrypt the header via software and still make the transmission deliverable without any delays, echoes, etc.?

According to research, Secureant is the only known company able to accomplish this feat.

Q2. What makes Secureant’s header encryption as additional security so important?

People for years have tried to encrypt the header through the network, but unsuccessful with their approaches. Secureant encrypts the header with ephemeral addressing and other unique and proprietary methods. Secureant utilizes one time pads (the most perfect way of encrypting – e.g.:  used in missile lock keys), and dynamic key exchange management. Through our header modulation techniques, we also reduce the size of the transmission payload, thus making the bandwidth transmission more effective in the data rate.  The denial of traffic analysis is a formidable technology in the tactical arena for U.S. agencies and commercial users, thereby giving a phenomenal advantage of protection for extremely sensitive information.

Q3. Is encrypting the header an important factor in the market?
                                                                                               
By encrypting the header, an eavesdropper (hacker) will not be able to identify where the transmission began (origin) or where it is heading to (destination). Thus, the denial of traffic analysis is achieved by completely concealing the origin and destination address of the signal.

Q4. Please explain about increasing the signal strength via software only? 

Secureant has designed advanced mathematical algorithms around the technology (from years of research associated with command and control environments), which is what makes it so unique. Because of it being software driven (both security and enhanced signal technology), it can be utilized in nearly any wireless device.

Q5. What type of equivalent security certification would you say Secureant's technology is?

Type II positive NSA standard. Type I devices require costly ways of production, such as physical hardware keys to take in and out of the unit. Secureant’s technology is 24 x 7 functional, for it resides as software inside the device protected and ready to use at all times. Our technology is able to meet NIST (National institute of Standards & Technology) FIPS 140-2 certification and NIAP common criteria verification.
