Ironclad engages with Sonim Technologies to offer the first ultra-secure, ultra-rugged mobile handset for consumers, enterprise and governmental agencies


NEW YORK & HOUSTON — June 5, 2017 — Ironclad Encryption Corporation announced it has engaged with Sonim Technologies to use their ultra-rugged LTE XP7 smartphone as the platform for integrating Ironclad Encryption's ultra-secure algorithms. These efforts will result in the development of ultra-secure, ultra-rugged mobile phones where security, privacy, safety and ruggedness are paramount concerns for users dealing with sensitive, confidential information and who must work under arduous situations and extreme environmental conditions.

"Working with Ironclad Encryption is a natural extension of the core principles expressed in our ruggedized handsets and accessories," said Bob Plaschke, Sonim's President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our customers already recognize Sonim as a leader in the ultra-rugged market. When enabled on our devices, Ironclad's encryption solution means that we will be able to ruggedize customers' communications and data files to the same exacting standards as we have for our mobile phones."

"Whether it's a soldier in the field, a corporate executive in the boardroom, or even a family storing pictures on their phones, there is an expectation for security and privacy that simply does not exist in today's consumer handsets," said J.D. McGraw, Ironclad Encryption's Chief Executive Officer. "Furthermore, the same case can be made for corporate and governmental networks and data storage facilities.

"In fact, today's widely deployed key-based encryption algorithms, which are used to secure everything from home Wi-Fi networks to data on our mobile devices, offer little protection against a determined individual hacker, hacker collective or unfriendly government agency.

"As one of Ironclad's first products integrating our patented key management solutions, being able to offer a smartphone that is both secure on the inside and rugged on the outside is a big win for the security industry and end users that experience security breaches on a daily basis," McGraw added.

About Ironclad Encryption Corporation:

Ironclad Encryption Corporation is a next-generation data security company that through its patented Dynamic Encryption and Perpetual Authentication technologies makes all known key-based encryption technologies virtually impossible to compromise. Dynamic Encryption Technology eliminates vulnerabilities caused by exposure of any single encryption key by continuously changing encryption keys and keeping the keys synchronized in a fault-tolerant manner. Perpetual Authentication Technology uses multiple virtual channels for encryption so that in the event one channel is compromised, the other channels maintain encryption integrity. Together, these technologies not only eliminate the single point of failure problem created by having keys exposed through brute force, side channel, or other types of attack, but do so with very low latency and performance overhead. Whether at rest or in-motion, Ironclad Encryption ensures your data remains safe, secure and uncompromised.
