Vodafone To Offer Encrypted SMS To Businesses (UK)

Vodafone UK has signed a reseller agreement with Broca, to provide a secure SMS messaging service. Broca's flagship service, SAMS, is a patented technology which encrypts and protects traditional SMS messages.

Under the terms of the agreement, Vodafone will integrate SAMS into the messaging portfolio sold by its 'Target' sales division. As a value added messaging product SAMS will be used for secure messaging and data capture for corporate customers. The initial focus will be to drive the use of SAMS by Vodafone business customers and Broca will receive payments based on the number of messages sent.

Redcoal Says: "This is an illustration of carriers providing value added services to facilitate the adoption of SMS within business. Currently in Australia, the majority of banking and financial institutions deliver services to customers via SMS in the form of event based account alerts, two factor authentication as well as incorporate SMS into complex processes requiring extensive customer interaction (Eg: Mortgage processing etc).
