SEKUR PRIVATE DATA APPOINTS LT. GEN. RAYMOND PALUMBO, U.S. ARMY (RET.) AS CHAIRMAN OF ITS STRATEGIC ADVISORY BOARD

Sekur Private Data Inc., a Miami-based leading Swiss-hosted cybersecurity, private communications and defence communications company serving enterprise, government and defence clients, and wholly owned United States-based subsidiary of Sekur Private Data Ltd., has appointed Lt.-Gen. Raymond Palumbo, U.S. Army (retired), as chairman of its strategic advisory board. A decorated three-star general with 34 years of uniformed service, Gen. Palumbo brings unparalleled military leadership, defence intelligence expertise and deep operational experience to Sekur as the company accelerates its expansion into the military, defence and government communications markets, and establishes itself as a trusted platform for defence-grade secure communications and controlled unclassified information protection.

Command at the highest level of defence intelligence

Lt.-Gen. Palumbo's appointment as chairman of Sekur's strategic advisory board brings to the company a leader who has operated at the absolute apex of U.S. military and defence intelligence. Over a 34-year career in uniform, Gen. Palumbo led both conventional and special operations forces in peacetime and combat, commanded at every echelon, and ultimately served as the director for defence intelligence -- one of the most senior intelligence positions in the U.S. military establishment.

In that role, Gen. Palumbo simultaneously led the Pentagon's Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance Task Force -- an organization responsible for delivering advanced airborne, terrestrial and maritime sensor platforms, communication systems, and intelligence analysis to warfighters and allied forces around the globe. His tenure at the intersection of defence technology, intelligence collection and operational communications gives him a first-hand understanding of exactly the threat environment Sekur's platforms are engineered to defeat.

Special operations, combat command and defence strategy

Gen. Palumbo's operational career represents the full spectrum of U.S. Army leadership. He served as assistant commanding general of the Joint Special Operations Command, as deputy commanding general of the U.S. Army Special Operations Command and as commander of U.S. Army Alaska -- commands that demanded mastery of rapid decision making, communications security, and operations in denied and contested environments where secure communications are not a preference but a survival requirement.

Following his retirement from uniformed service, Gen. Palumbo founded Venturi Solutions LLC, a defence strategy firm delivering solutions across the aerospace, defence, intelligence and technology sectors. He currently serves on the boards of Elta North America Inc., W.S. Darley & Company Inc., Quantum Systems Inc., and Tekscend Photomasks Round Rock Inc., and has served as a senior adviser to McKinsey's aerospace and defence practice -- bringing the full weight of his military and private sector experience to Sekur's strategic leadership.

Gen. Palumbo's role at Sekur Private Data

As chairman of Sekur's strategic advisory board, Gen. Palumbo will provide executive-level strategic guidance on Sekur's expansion into military and defence communications markets, advise on the development of government and defence procurement strategies, and leverage his extensive network across the U.S. defence establishment, special operations community and intelligence community to position Sekur as the secure communications platform of choice for military- and defence-sector customers.

Gen. Palumbo will work in close co-ordination with Sekur's newly appointed chief technology officer, John T. Lewis -- a 34-year CIA senior intelligence service executive expert and CIA trailblazer medal recipient -- to align Sekur's technology road map with defence and government market requirements, advance the company's positioning as a trusted CUI-compliant platform, and guide Sekur's engagement with defence contractors, federal agencies and military commands.

A strategic advisory board built for the defence market

The appointment of Lt.-Gen. Palumbo as chairman signals Sekur's deliberate and accelerating commitment to the military, defence and government communications market. Gen. Palumbo's operational military command experience and John Lewis's technical intelligence and defence communications expertise form a leadership combination uniquely positioned to navigate the complex procurement, security certification and operational requirements of defence and government customers worldwide.

Lt.-Gen. Palumbo, chairman of the Sekur strategic advisory board, commented: "Secure communications is not an abstract concept for me. It is a mission-critical operational requirement I lived every day for 34 years in the military. From special operations in the field to leading the Pentagon's ISR task force, the ability to communicate securely and reliably in hostile, denied and surveilled environments was the difference between mission success and mission failure. Sekur has built a defence-grade secure communications platform that addresses exactly those requirements -- with both Swiss-hosted and data sovereign on-premises infrastructure for government and agencies requirements, proprietary architecture, and zero reliance on systems that adversaries have already demonstrated they can exploit. I am honoured to chair Sekur's strategic advisory board and committed to helping bring these capabilities to the military and defence communities that need them most."

Alain Ghiai, chief executive officer of Sekur, commented: "The appointment of Ltd.-Gen. Raymond Palumbo as chairman of our strategic advisory board is a defining moment for Sekur. His 34-year career leading special operations forces, commanding defence intelligence at the Pentagon and advising the highest levels of the U.S. defence establishment gives Sekur a level of military credibility and strategic access that simply cannot be manufactured. Gen. Palumbo will guide our military and defence sector strategy, lead our strategic advisory board and help us fulfill our mission of becoming the world's most trusted defence-grade secure communications platform -- including our commitment to becoming a recognized leader in controlled unclassified information protection for defence contractors, federal agencies and the intelligence community. His appointment reinforces our commitment to being the world's most trusted platform for secure, private communications at every classification level."

Sekur's core defence and government communications solutions

Sekur delivers mission-critical secure communications engineered for operation within and outside of 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 defence, intelligence community and federal agency operational environments. Government and defence deployments are supported by on-premises infrastructure options for full data sovereignty and operational control.

SekurMail -- secure command and operational e-mail

A defence-grade encrypted e-mail platform engineered for personnel operating at the command level across military, federal agency and intelligence community environments, and 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 e-mail compromise attacks targeting command and administrative networks.

SekurMessenger -- field-ready secure messaging and 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, SekurMessenger features include self-destructing messages for operational security, encrypted file transfers and compliance-grade archiving for afteraction and audit requirements. Cross-network secure communications with non-Sekur personnel are supported by chat by invite -- enabling secure co-ordination 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 -- defence-grade network security and identity protection

A military-standard virtual private network leveraging proprietary HeliX encryption technology, engineered to provide secure Internet access and 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 e-mail integration

An enterprise-grade secure e-mail 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 defence and government deployment, enabling phased adoption that protects the highest-value personnel and communications immediately while broader organizational implementation proceeds, designed for defence contractors, federal agencies and IC components requiring rapid, low-friction elevation of communications security at the command tier.

SekurVoice -- encrypted voice and 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 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 by SMS or SekurSend e-mail ensures controlled operator access and eliminates unsolicited contact vectors.
