MCI set to offer secure two-way messaging with strong encryption
10/27/04
By William Jackson,
GCN Staff

MCI Inc. will offer secure two-way messaging through its SkyTel
Communications subsidiary next month, encrypting wireless text
with the Advanced Encryption Algorithm.

"It was initially designed to meet the security needs of our
government customers," SkyTel marketing director Michael Barnes
said.

The company plans to get the device for its Secure 2Way service
certified for Federal Information Processing Standard 140-2,
which applies to cryptological devices used by the government.

The company also is promoting the service as compliant with the
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act and expects
the health care and financial service industries to be early users.
