Web desk: The National Telecommunication Corporation (NTC) has launched a pilot project for a fully developed secure mobile phone in Pakistan. This project is specifically designed to meet the communication needs of government officials and sensitive organisations.
The initiative aims to enhance government communications by providing a secure, reliable, and fully indigenous technology solution.
According to the details, the mobile phone has been entirely developed in Pakistan, including both hardware and software.
Its most notable feature is that it operates completely offline on a specially developed operating system. It reduces the risk of cyberattacks and ensures the protection of sensitive information.
Notable Features
All applications used on the device have also been locally developed. The phone is compatible with SIM cards from all telecom operators in Pakistan. This makes it convenient for official use.
It is expected to provide a robust alternative for secure communication among government bodies.
NTC officials added that the phone has no backup feature, meaning that in the event of theft or a security breach, the data cannot be accessed.
Conversations and messages cannot be monitored or intercepted. This feature further safeguards sensitive government information.
Many have described the development as a major milestone in Pakistan’s digital security landscape.
It also represents an important step toward Pakistan’s digital future. And towards strengthening the security of communication systems across the country.
