National Security Agency (NSA) Goes Secure GSM
By Matthew A. Peretz

June 06, 2002
General Dynamics Decision Systems, a business unit of General Dynamics,
announced today the availability of the Type 1 certified Sectera Secure
Wireless Phone for GSM. The phone will be used by U.S. government personnel
for secure communications over commercial GSM (Global System for Mobile
Communications) wireless networks worldwide. The National Security Agency
(NSA) certified the secure phone's ability to protect classified information
up to the Top Secret level on June 3, 2002.
Certification of General Dynamics' secure wireless products is a significant
achievement in the U.S. government's overall secure wireless strategy,
according to the NSA's Office of Secure End-User Technologies. The Type 1
phone, which consists of a clip-in secure module designed for use with the
Motorola Timeport Tri-band phone, operates over commercial or private GSM
systems in the 900, 1800 and 1900 MHz GSM bandwidths and is designed with
the latest convenience and security features.
"The Sectera Secure Wireless Phone for GSM gives government users access to
commercial technology and infrastructure and provides a means to exchange
sensitive and classified information with end-to-end security," said Mark
Fried, General Dynamics Decision Systems president and general manager. "We
have received many inquiries from our customer base in advance of this
product's introduction because of the widespread need for high assurance
secure wireless telecommunications products."
The Sectera Secure Wireless Phone for GSM interoperates with the General
Dynamics Sectera Wireline Terminal, which was announced in April 2002. The
wireline terminal is a compact, lightweight device that connects to a
standard analog telephone or a personal computer to provide secure voice and
data communications.
General Dynamics also plans to introduce a commercial version of the secure
GSM phone, which will be available for export.
GSM is the fastest growing wireless telecommunications technology around the
world, with over 646 million users spanning 168 countries, and more than 400
GSM network operators worldwide. "GSM is clearly the best wireless service
for carriers and consumers alike," said Tim Wong, executive vice president
and chief technology officer of VoiceStream, a leading wireless service
provider of GSM. "It is the most successful digital standard, bringing the
benefits of global roaming to consumers and economies of scale to operators.
The combination of GSM, Type 1 security and VoiceStream's offering of
Wireless Priority Service provides the U.S. government with unprecedented
capability for assured and protected communications for routine as well as
national security and emergency preparedness missions."
The wireless and wireline products employ General Dynamics' Sectera
Interoperable Security Architecture, which results in secure product designs
that are high assurance, reusable, upgradeable and software-programmable.
Additionally, the products comply with U.S. government-sponsored Future
Narrow Band Digital Terminal (FNBDT) standards and will securely
interoperate with other FNBDT-compatible devices.
General Dynamics Decision Systems, based in Scottsdale, Ariz., is a leader
in technologies, products and systems for information assurance,
communication and situational awareness for defense and industrial customers
in the U.S. and abroad. In addition to the Scottsdale headquarters, General
Dynamics Decision Systems has facilities in Huntsville, Ala., Orlando, Fla.,
and Columbia, Md., as well as other locations close to customer centers of
operation.

market positions in land and amphibious combat systems, mission- critical
information systems and technologies, shipbuilding and marine systems, and
