ERCOM Tests Secure-VoLTE Calls for Enterprises

June 04, 2013 |
PARIS -- ERCOM announced today that it has successfully passed its first secure call on a live LTE network in Paris, France. Thanks to more than 10 years’ experience in cryptography, ERCOM has enhanced its Cryptosmart technology to protect LTE/4G Smartphones. As LTE Networks are booming around the world, governments and corporations can now benefit from the advantages of high-speed LTE networks in a fully secure manner.

LTE/4G brings two major benefits to mobile users: (1) higher bandwidth (up to 100Mbps) and (2) reduced latency (down to 20ms). This combination creates a major enhancement for real-time applications such as secure voice. Thus, ERCOM has decided to enlarge the portfolio of Cryptosmart enabled Smartphones with the Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE. Compatibility with other LTE/4G smartphones will be launched in the near future.

According to Yannick Dupuch, Ercom CEO: “Secure Voice over LTE with Cryptosmart is crystal clear while complying to government security requirements; the sound experience is better than on a traditional GSM network. This opens the door to other highly secure applications such as secure push to talk, secure PMR over LTE for security authorities, secure wireless broadcast, etc.”
