For enterprises that want to secure a large number of users installing encryption devices on each internal telephone line might not be cost effective. The alternative is to install Snapfones on external analog lines, in front of the PBXs, thus enabling any number of users to enjoy secure communications even from a digital or a smart phone extension. 

Users wishing to make secure calls will dial a special outside line prefix or special code (depending on PBX configuration) to receive a secure line. They will then proceed as usual. If the destination number is part of the Snapzone members list, the calling Snapfone initiates a secure connection, if not, a regular connection is established.

It is as simple as that!

In today’s business environment, despite increasing popularity of digital communications, critical business data is transferred via fax communications. As any other communication over  the telephone lines, fax communication is also vulnerable to eavesdropping.

Snapshield creates safe fax zone

Snapzone provides corporations with a cost-effective means of transparently securing fax communications between their different offices by establishing a secure virtual private network over the public telephone infrastructure. The safe zone can be extended to include strategic suppliers and business partners (lawyers, accountants).

With the advent of the global village the physical distance between offices of the same corporations have greatly increased – often corporations span not only different countries, but also different continents. Now more than ever enterprises want to be able to hold meetings without having to fly over their employees to one location – the answer is teleconferencing. 

On the other hand critical secrets can be discussed during these teleconferences and since eavesdropping has reached epidemic proportions worldwide, securing audio teleconferences becomes necessary.

There are several options for creating a secure audio teleconference zone, depending on the corporate needs. The basic configuration for a multiparty conference requires Snapfone units to be installed in front of the PBX in the central office (on external analog lines), while in the other sites the Snapfones can be installed either on an internal analog line, connected to a telephone or a conference phone, or in front of the PBX on external analog lines.

Secure Mobile GSM networks

In today’s dynamic environment you rely on cellular communication to keep in contact with your business and home from all around the world 24 hours a day.

Snapshield has developed Snapcell, a plug-in cellular encryption unit to enable secure point-to-point GSM communications.

Unlike other existing GSM solutions, which require you to purchase a dedicated – and expensive – cellular handset, Snapcell is an accessory for the popular Ericsson and Sony-Ericsson handsets. Just attach Snapcell into the handset and enjoy military-strength security at EFR voice quality!

he Snapzone solution consists of a set of encryption termination units, Snapfone™, which are installed on analog telephone lines and management software that facilitates the configuration and administration of the system.

The Snapfone is a plug and play CPE unit, connected between an analog telephone or fax machine and the wall socket, which provides digital encryption. 

The Snapfone will create a modem session and after successfully synchronized, will establish an agreement key session using Diffie-Hellman algorithm in order to generate a mutual secret 3DES key that will secure the channel.
