January 08 2020 - 9:00AM
WidePoint Corporation (NYSE American:
WYY), the leading provider of Trusted Mobility Management
(TM2) specializing in Telecommunications Lifecycle Management,
Identity Management and Digital Billing & Analytics solutions
and
KoolSpan, the provider of TrustCall, have
entered into a partnership through which WidePoint delivers
KoolSpan’s cross-platform, end-to-end communication solution to
WidePoint customers so that they can make phone calls and send text
messages securely.
WidePoint has partnered with KoolSpan to resell TrustCall, the
leading secure mobile communications platform to governments and
enterprises globally that secures phone calls and messages with
end-to-end encryption. TrustCall is an enterprise-grade solution
that delivers high performance and HD quality encrypted audio and
can be flexibly deployed via the cloud, on premise, or in hybrid
form.
“KoolSpan’s TrustCall ensures that devices use end-to-end
encryption for all communication paths, which is crucial to
improving the security of global telecommunications networks,” said
Jin Kang, WidePoint President and Chief Executive Officer. “By
partnering with KoolSpan, we have immediately added a secure
communication tool that is directly complementary to our product
suite and a critical need for our federal and enterprise clients.
We expect this partnership to give us an additional leg up over our
competition as we continue to focus on expanding our presence as a
leading provider of trusted mobility management services.”
Nigel Jones, KoolSpan’s Chief Executive Officer, stated:
“WidePoint has a long history of successfully serving both federal
agencies and enterprise clients, and by partnering with them, we’re
able to leverage their reputation and relationships to serve a much
broader customer base.”
“Global telecommunications networks are inherently insecure as
has been well documented by cyber security experts in the U.S.
Government and across the private sector. The threats, from
surveillance of communications to theft of IP to corporate
espionage, are posed by systemic vulnerabilities in the global
telecommunications infrastructure that readily enable interception
and monitoring of mobile communications, both voice and data,” said
Elad Yoran, KoolSpan Executive Chairman. “The only viable solution
to this problem is to use end-to-end (E2E) encryption for all
communications. KoolSpan is excited to partner with WidePoint to
provide TrustCall.“
