Sekur Establishes Foothold in Defense, Intelligence & Special Operations Communications - Deploys SekurVoice for CUI-Compliant Encrypted Voice, and Attends SOF Week 2026 to Engage SOCOM and Defense Contractor Ecosystem

MIAMI, FL / ACCESS Newswire / May 8, 2026 / Sekur Private Data, Inc., a Miami-based Swiss-hosted defense communications and cybersecurity company purpose-built for defense, intelligence community, government, and enterprise clients, and wholly owned U.S. based subsidiary of Sekur Private Data (OTCQB:SWISF)(CSE:SKUR)(FRA:GDT0) ("Sekur" or the "Company"), is pleased to provide the following updates on its recent activities:

The Company has been working to embed Sekur as a mission-critical communications provider across the Defense, Intelligence, and Military sectors through its newly appointed Strategic and Special Advisors - seasoned veterans of the U.S. defense and intelligence community - to establish Sekur as the go-to platform for defense-grade operational communications and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) protection. Initial engagement with defense and intelligence community stakeholders has been strongly positive, with multiple qualification conversations underway that the Company anticipates converting to contracted deployments.

Update on Sekur Encrypted Voice CUI Communications - SekurVoice

The Company is pleased to announce that it is in the final BETA testing phase of SekurVoice - a fully integrated, defense-ready communications suite combining CUI-compliant encrypted voice, secure email, hardened messaging, and VPN into a single operator platform. The first roll out will be called SekurVoice and is expected to be available for sale in early June, with video capabilities and video conferencing available by July 2026.

To date, Sekur has received several requests for SekurVoice and plans to roll out the first accounts in the first week of June. The Company projects deployment of no fewer than 1,000 SekurVoice operator accounts in the next 12 - 18 months, driven by existing reservations from defense partners, resellers, and government channel partners. SekurVoice plans begin at US$3,500/year and include a Sekur-provisioned privacy eSIM data card - purpose-configured for operational security and carrier-independent deployment in the field.

Attendance of SOF Week Annual Conference for the Global special Operations Forces Community

The Company is pleased to announce that its senior executives and defense-sector strategic advisors will be deployed to SOF Week Annual Conference in Tampa May 18 to 21 2026. During the conference, Sekur will conduct live capability demonstrations of its full defense communications suite - including SekurVoice, SekurMessenger, and SekurVPN - targeting procurement decision-makers, SOCOM leadership and acquisition officers across U.S. Special Operations Forces (SOF) and partner nation defense components represented at the conference. Additionally, the Company anticipates announcing multiple defense-sector partnerships and channel agreements in the months ahead, emanating from the conference attendance. The Company is presently in final negotiations on at least one strategic teaming agreement with a prime defense contractor and will make an announcement once everything has been signed, no later than May 25^th.

Sekur's Core Defense & Government Communications Solutions

Sekur delivers mission-critical secure communications engineered for operation within and outside the Sekur network, bypassing traditional telecommunications infrastructure and eliminating exposure to interception, signals exploitation, phone record compromise, and network surveillance. No Sekur solution data mines or location tracks its operators. All solutions are built on proprietary architecture with zero reliance on Big Tech infrastructure or open-source code - purpose-built for defense, intelligence community, and federal agency operational environments. Government and defense deployments are supported by on-premises infrastructure options for full data sovereignty and operational control.

SekurMail - Secure Command & Operational Email
A defense-grade encrypted email platform engineered for personnel operating at the command level across military, federal agency, and intelligence community environments. Built on proprietary architecture with zero Big Tech dependencies and no metadata tracking, SekurMail ensures that mission-sensitive communications remain strictly compartmented between sender and recipient. Operational capabilities include SekurSend/SekurReply for secure transmission to non-Sekur personnel without exposing operator identities or message content; full message delivery control and audit capability; encrypted file transfer; custom domain support for organizational integration; and active countermeasures against phishing, social engineering, and Business Email Compromise (BEC) attacks targeting command and administrative networks.

SekurMessenger - Field-Ready Secure Messaging & Collaboration
A hardened, field-deployable secure messaging platform providing end-to-end encrypted text, file transfer, voice recordings, and collaboration capabilities for personnel operating in sensitive, denied, or contested environments. Features include self-destructing messages for operational security, encrypted file transfers, and compliance-grade archiving for after-action and audit requirements. Cross-network secure communications with non-Sekur personnel are supported via Chat-by-Invite - enabling secure coordination with external mission partners without network compromise. Each operator is assigned a unique Sekur ID for identity vetting and contact authentication, with no phone number required - preserving personnel anonymity and OPSEC integrity across all operational environments.

SekurVPN - Defense-Grade Network Security & Identity Protection
A military-standard Virtual Private Network leveraging proprietary HeliX encryption technology, engineered to provide secure internet access, identity obfuscation, and traffic protection for personnel operating in sensitive, forward-deployed, or hostile environments. SekurVPN maintains zero data logging, ensuring no operator activity record exists that could be exploited through legal process, network compromise, or adversarial collection. Purpose-built for use cases where standard commercial VPN solutions present unacceptable counterintelligence and operational security risk.

SekurRelay - Command-Level Secure Email Integration
An enterprise-grade secure email relay solution that enables domain splitting - allowing organizations to establish secure communications at the command, executive, or senior staff level without requiring full organizational migration or infrastructure overhaul. SekurRelay eliminates one of the most significant barriers to large-scale defense and government deployment, enabling phased adoption that protects the highest-value personnel and communications immediately while broader organizational implementation proceeds. Designed for defense contractors, federal agencies, and IC components requiring rapid, low-friction elevation of communications security at the command tier.

SekurVoice - Encrypted Voice & Video for Sensitive Operations
A fully encrypted voice and video communications platform engineered on proprietary HeliX data transfer architecture, purpose-built to defeat telecom network tracing, resist Pegasus-style malware intrusion, and support Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) handling requirements. SekurVoice is designed for personnel conducting sensitive, covert, or classified-adjacent communications where standard carrier-based voice and video platforms present unacceptable interception and exploitation risk. Call-by-Invite capability via SMS or SekurSend email ensures controlled operator access and eliminates unsolicited contact vectors. Each user is assigned a unique Sekur ID for operational vetting and identity management, with no phone number required - preserving personnel anonymity across all voice and video operations.
