SMS 007 – Encrypt Your SMS Messages
Everton | Mar 16, 2006 | View Comments
A new SMS encryption service is now available. The service has been developed by CircleTech, s.r.o., a Czech software corporation. The Java (J2ME) application, which can run on majority of current mobile phones, uses encryption standard AES and user-derived keys to securely encrypt the SMS communication between parties which use it.
SMS 007 has been available for Czech customers for almost 5 months, but only very recently has entered the international market. The main distributor for Europe is Nokia Softwaremarket.
Besides encryption of the messages, SMS 007 has also other security features like a hidden contact list, which cannot be seen from the outside without knowledge of the main password – therefore, if someone steals your phone or just gets it in their hands for a while, he/she still cannot read not only your messages, but not even whom are you writing to.
Sounds pretty cool. I’m going to try and get a copy of a trial account to have a play around with it.
