Criptyque, a secure communications provider, has launched Pryvate, that the Jersey-based firm calls the first all-encompassing and fully encrypted communications platform for mobile devices. The firm says it secures communication services across email, voice calls, conference calls, video calls and instant messenger to protect consumers and businesses from cybercriminals, intruders, corporate espionage and hackers.
The Pryvate application provides triple-layered security powered by top-of-the-line 4096-bit encryption, with AES 256-bit key management and DH key exchange. It offers truly seamless independent, network agnostic security combined with high quality of service at a low cost.
Initially available on Apple and Google Play stores, the service provides security by generating unique encryption keys on the devices of both users who communicate via the application. Once a key is used, a new key is created for every subsequent interaction and auto renew for every call, IM, message, session etc. Pryvate has no access to users’ encryption keys past, present or future: making it impossible to leak, hack, collaborate or give away keys, which makes all communication through Pryvate totally secure and impervious to hacking.
Jonathan Parker-Bray, CEO and Founder of Pryvate, said: “We believe that everyone has the right to choose whether or not to keep their communications private and protect themselves from cybercrime and surveillance. In the face of the mass data hacking, theft, and surveillance taking place on an unprecedented scale by a myriad of sources, we are finally offering consumers and businesses a complete service that secures all of their digital communications through one easy to use application. Our customers can rest assured that nothing can pry into Pryvate.”
“It has been widely demonstrated time and time again recently that data hacking, theft and surveillance has been on the rise. Our aim is to help people understand the real risk of a potential breach that exists when they use their smartphones to communicate on a daily basis, and offer them a cost-effective solution to ensure their sensitive information remains private across their mobile devices.”
The three subscription products are: Pryvate, a mobile app that offers secure communications, Pryvate Premium, which also includes added storage and account management functionality, and Pryvate Enterprise, which also adds desktop functionality and products. All three products default to the free-to-use Pryvate Lite, which offers users secure free phone calls of up to one minute. Visit www.pryvatenow.com.
