History
PrivaFone was incorporated in
Texas in 2003 with the purpose of developing cryptographic
software that users could download onto their cell phones to
secure phone calls.
In 2005 we started working on a
PC-based secure VoIP application using sipXtapi as the code
base.
This will be a really nice application once we get it
finished, and will feature:
-
secure VoIP
client using both symmetric and asymmetric encryption
-
Tiger Jet
USB/RJ11 adapter will allow an ordinary telephone to be
used as a handset
-
cryptographic key length is limited only by computing
power
-
keys are
securely destroyed after each call
In the future,
we will be developing a PBX server that users can upload to
any website in the world, as well as porting the PC app to
mobile operating systems. This will afford users the
possibility of truly
secure, anonymous and covert communication.
The website for
this project is
www.privafone.com.
In 2007 we
became interested in the area of semen detection kits,
and discovered there wasn't a really satisfactory kit on the
market. There were test kits for acid phosphatase (AP), and
immunochromatographic tests for prostate specific antigen
(PSA)
and semenogelin, but these were somewhat expensive and
complicated to use. Therefore, R&D was begun
on a dual-component test kit--one that used a simple AP
spot test for presumptive evidence of semen as well as a more specific PSA strip
test, and that included a generous supply of strips.
In 2008 development was completed and the InSite®
Semen Detection Kit offered for sale--the world's first
dual-action, easy-to-use kit for private investigation of
sexual activity.
