Subject: STU III and Fortezza now Verboten
I wasn't aware that the U.S. has stopped permitting the use of STU III
secure phones and Fortezza data cards. What development or security breach
caused them to ditch those solutions?
Perhaps a bunch of this gear will be surplused for cheap, and might be
adequately secure for some private-sector applications. Is it legal for
any private U.S. citizen to buy and possess these devices?

Secret Service has ‘urgent’ need for a dozen secure fax machines
Wed, 2010-04-07 02:48 PM
By: Jacob Goodwin
The U.S. Secret Services says it has an “urgent” requirement for a doze=
n
secure fax machines that must be compatible with what’s known as the Secu=
re
Communications Interoperability Protocol, or SCIP.
The federal government’s standard for secure fax capability changed
dramatically in December 2009, when the longtime standard STU III secure
telephone and the KOV-14 Fortezza card were no longer permitted, explains
the Web site of General Dynamics C4 Systems, a supplier of secure fax
equipment. Instead, the government chose to transition to the Asynchronous
Digital Secure Fax, using the secure data capabilities offered in
SCIP-compliant products.
The Secret Service’s upcoming contract will be 100 percent set-aside for
small business.
“This requirement is urgent, and US Secret Service will accept, and
encourage, partial shipments if the total quantity [of 12 units] is not
available immediately,” says the Secret Service’s solicitation which wa=
s
posted on April 6.
Prospective suppliers have until April 12 to submit their proposals, via
e-mail, to David Keene at davi..._at_usss.dhs.gov. Keene can also be
reached at 202-406-6797.
