Press Release, Tel Aviv, 05 February 2025: Assac Networks, a member of the Aspis Technologies Group, and a specialised provider of cyber solutions for the comprehensive protection of communication devices used by government agencies, defence, and commercial organisations, announced today the acquisition of a significant contract from a government organisation in South America. The agreement involves the implementation of ASSAC’s cutting-edge ShieldiT system, designed to provide robust cyber defence for the organisation’s entire communication infrastructure.
The ShieldiT system will deliver a comprehensive security solution, including managed secured communications for smartphones and desktop devices, a monitored threat-safe messaging system, and integration with the organisation’s telephony switch, creating an all-encompassing secure environment.
As Assac Networks’ flagship product, ShieldiT offers unified, managed anti-hacking and anti-tapping capabilities for smartphones, recognised as the most vulnerable points in organisational networks. Its advanced features include real-time link analysis, behavioural analysis, network layer protection, and application risk analysis, protecting against prevalent mobile threats such as mobile phishing and QR code phishing.
Shimon Zigdon, CEO of Assac Networks, emphasised the critical nature of mobile security: “Recent studies indicate that most ransomware attacks on organisations originate through employees’ mobile phones connected to management systems and organisational emails. ShieldiT stands as the only application offering complete protection against both tapping and hacking attempts, addressing the urgent need for comprehensive mobile security in government and enterprise environments. This agreement underscores our commitment to expanding ASSAC’s solutions in the governmental market. As a company specialising in cyber protection services for government, corporate, and cellular subscribers, we are delighted to extend our offering globally and strengthen our position in the South American market.”
The implementation of the ShieldiT system is scheduled to commence in the coming months, marking a significant step forward in the organisation’s cybersecurity posture. This contract reinforces ASSAC Networks’ position as a leading provider of cybersecurity solutions for government and enterprise clients worldwide.
