G1 Secure Communicator

The G1 is a closed mobile system for person to person messaging

The entire ARMA G1 communications platform is designed and manufactured by ARMA Instruments, including the communications software, Linux based ARMA operating system and the electronics board. By tailoring the ARMA G1 system to secure messaging we reduced the attack surface to minimal proportions. It has the smallest possible codebase, no 3rd party applications, microphone, NFC, WIFI, Bluetooth, GPS or even a single connector. It charges wireless and connects to the cellular network only.
 
End to end encrypted data is sent directly to its intended recipient through TOR, a public network, that anonymously routes user data through several random and encrypted relay servers across the globe. Messaging servers are not used at all. This leaves no infrastructure or persistent data to attack. ARMA’s patented Dynamic Identity feature prevents you from becoming a target by regularly interchanging the International Mobile Subscriber Identifier (IMSI) number, with at the heart of it ARMA’s virtual SIM that replaces a conventional physical SIM card.

Direct Benefits

  • Developed for TOP SECRET level security
    Our secure communications technology is designed to provide the highest safety achievable in secure communications.

  • No infrastructure
    The ARMA G1 communications system relies on Tor network, which is public infrastructure. Therefore, the purchase and maintenance of infrastructure is not needed.

  • Seamless integration
    Setting up a closed secure communications network based on the ARMA G1 requires no significant actions. Users activate the device in minutes and can easily add contacts by sharing short lived codes. ARMA can provide its clients with additional custom services.

  • Dynamic Identity
    ARMA’s patented Dynamic Identity feature prevents you from becoming a target by regularly interchanging the International Mobile Subscriber Identifier (IMSI) number, with at the heart of it ARMA’s virtual SIM that replaces a conventional physical SIM card.

  • Serverless Infrastructure
    End to end encrypted data is sent directly to its intended recipient through TOR, a public network, that anonymously routes user data through several random and encrypted relay servers across the globe. Messaging servers are not used at all. This leaves no infrastructure or persistent data to attack.

Messaging servers are not used at all. This leaves no infrastructure or persistent data to attack.

  • Controlled ecosystem
    Secure ecosystem through zero-trust policy, from hardware and operating system to software and organisation.

  • Non-extractable keys
    Encryption and decryption with non-extractable keys that are generated and stay on the device, unknown to ARMA or any third party.

  • Isolated cellular modem
    Modem is isolated from the device’s main computing core and has no direct memory access.

  • Controlled execution environment
    Trusted boot and firmware updates and cryptographic verification of the boot image integrity.

  • Microservice architecture
    Individual software components are isolated using operating system containers.

  • Single application
    Dedicated messaging, no third party applications.

  • Passports
    Multiple aliases are possible on a single device. Certain contact groups may be handled isolated and independently.

  • Self destruct
    All critical hardware components are protected in a tamper resistant enclosure. If the integrity of the device is compromised, all encryption keys are irrecoverably erased.

  • Closed network
    No interoperability with other communications systems.

  • Anti-tamper
    Tamper resistant enclosure, if compromised, all encryption keys are irrecoverably erased.

  • TEMPEST resistant
    Both passive and active measures are in place to ensure the blocking of electromagnetic emissions that otherwise would leak sensitive information.

  • Minimal attack surface
    No connectors, NFC, Bluetooth, WIFI, GPS, speaker, microphone or sensors

  • Governance
    Control System for Transparency provides transparency in root of trust, manufacturing, system and organisation

  • Threat Intelligence Center
    As part of our Secure Operations Center the ARMA Threat Intelligence Center is based on the collection of intelligence using open source intelligence, social media intelligence, human Intelligence, technical intelligence or intelligence from the deep and dark web. It’s key mission is to research and analyse trends and technical developments in the areas of cybercrime, hacktivism and cyber espionage.
    This enables us to anticipate, respond to and remediate threats on all levels, whether user operational, legislative, distribution or otherwise.
