Governments need to run large, complex communication networks that must provide reliable platforms for classified information. A Ministry of Foreign Affairs, for example, must rely on a global transnational network to transport sensitive information between the Ministry at home and embassies and missions around the world. Many of these will be capable of communicating over multiple communication channels including satellite. In addition, in each country, the local embassy needs to be able to communicate securely with the ambassador’s residence, travelling attachés, and other staff members – and they need to be able to consult with officials at home using a secure line. To meet these needs, GSMK can provide a comprehensive secure communications system that is customized to a client’s individual requirements.

Example Setup:

• Global Virtual Private Network (VPN) that is individually customized to the client’s needs and that supports a multitude of communication channels, including satellite
• Secure calls from the Ministry’s ISDN or Voice over IP PBX system to fixed-line and mobile users in the diplomatic service, whether in the home country, in an embassy abroad, or member of a temporary mission using the GSMK/Sirrix PBX Gateway
• Secure calls and secure messaging from an embassy to the ambassador’s residence, the military attaché, and other staff using the GSMK Cryptophone PSTN/1i secure fixed-line phone and the GSMK CryptoPhone G10i+, GSMK CryptoPhone 301 and GSMK CryptoPhone 400 secure mobile phones
• Secure calls to and from agents in remote areas without GSM coverage using either the GSMK CryptoPhone PSTN/1i together with an Inmarsat satellite terminal or the GSMK CryptoPhone 300T and a portable Thuraya satellite phone
