  1. Not the first time by martingunnarsson · · Score: 1 · on Encrypted Cell Phone Hits the Market

    A similar solution called Tiger was developed for the Swedish armed forces several years back, and was released in a "civilian"-version in 2000. Just like these new phones the old ones was sold in pairs, and they weren't cheap!
    Check this out: Sectra, the manufacturer of the Tiger.

    Cell phones with encryption capabilities has been available since at least 1999. The Tiger cell phone from Sectra has been available for more than four years now.

    I don't think there is a very large demand for it though. People just don't care enough about their privacy to compensate for the disadvantages.

  6. Four years after Sectra by Chainsaw · · Score: 1 · on Encrypted Cell Phone Hits the Market

    Swedish company Sectra released their secure GSM phone named Tiger in October 1999. This phone was in use by the Swedish military before that, too. And you don't need some shoddy Windows implementation for the encryption.

  7. Re:Huh? by pv2b · · Score: 5, Interesting · on Russians Order Mobile Phone Encryption Removed

    A Swedish company named Sectra among other things sell mobile phones with non-standard strong encryption, that only works between two of the same phones.

    But with normal GSM, not really. The GSM encryption, from what I've understood, is only intended to stop normal people from building equipment to eavesdrop on calls, not to stop law enforcement wiretaps.
