Secure communication is more than a solution. It’s a discipline.


This week, the two companies at the core of CR Group gave 3 different glimpses into what working in secure communications actually means.

In Rome, Sentyron received the Common Criteria certificate for its DataDiode, this time under the Sentyron name, following the rebrand of the company one year ago. To those outside the field, transferring a certificate might sound like an administrative step. It isn’t. Common Criteria is the international benchmark for evaluating security products, and maintaining that certification through a rebrand required a full, rigorous review by independent authorities. For government and defence customers, a lapse would have been disqualifying. There was no lapse.

In Stockholm, Tutus Data presented at the Critical Communication Sweden autumn meeting – a gathering of organisations whose job is to keep communications working when everything else is failing. The topic: secure mobile communication for government and emergency services. The kind of audience that does not attend for inspiration. They attend because they need answers.

Sentyron is currently running a webinar built around a Secure Mobile Maturity Model, a structured framework for organisations that want to move from knowing they have a problem to understanding exactly where they stand and what to do first.

3 different activities, 3 layers of the same discipline: certification, knowledge exchange, capability building.

This is what years of experience looks like in daily practice. Not a brand. Not a platform. A body of knowledge that takes decades to build and that customers in defence, government and critical infrastructure have learned to trust and depend upon.

How mature is your organisation’s approach to secure communication? Do you have the right partners to find out?
