Encrypted text messaging for BlackBerry and Android

ProtectedSMS enables BlackBerry and Android users to exchange secure, encrypted text messages with individuals who have installed the software.


Unlike other secure texting solutions that require a subscription through a third-party security gateway, ProtectedSMS is a handset-to-handset solution that keeps privacy in the control of users and works across all networks and carriers. It installs quickly and is as easy to use as sending a text message.

Developed for law enforcement, government and corporate professionals who require secure and convenient message protection, ProtectedSMS utilizes AES 256 FIPS 140-2 compliant encryption, and is available via individual and enterprise licenses.

Protected Mobility’s key management and encryption process enables easy transfer of existing client applications to a secure mobile platform. An iPhone version of ProtectedSMS will be available later in Q2 2011 along with tablet and iPad versions.

Individual licenses are $49.95 per user, with a free 14-day download available here.
