Sekur Private Data Appoints Lt. Gen. Raymond Palumbo, U.S. Army (Ret.) as Chairman of its Strategic Advisory BoardApril 29, 2026 8:30 AM
ACCESS NewswireDecorated Three-Star General, Former Director for Defense Intelligence, and Pentagon ISR Task Force Commander Joins Sekur to Lead Military and Defense Sector Expansion and Guide the Company's Defense-Grade Secure Communications StrategyMIAMI, FL / ACCESS Newswire / April 29, 2026 / Sekur Private Data, Inc., a Miami based leading Swiss-hosted cybersecurity, private communications, and defense communications company serving enterprise, government, and defense clients, and wholly owned U.S. based subsidiary of Sekur Private Data (OTCQB:SWISF)(CSE:SKUR)(FRA:GDT0) ("Sekur" or the "Company"), is pleased to announce the appointment of Lieutenant General Raymond Palumbo, U.S. Army (Retired), as Chairman of its Strategic Advisory Board. A decorated three-star general with 34 years of uniformed service, General Palumbo brings unparalleled military leadership, defense intelligence expertise, and deep operational experience to Sekur as the company accelerates its expansion into the military, defense, and government communications markets and establishes itself as a trusted platform for defense-grade secure communications and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) protection.Command at the Highest Level of Defense IntelligenceLieutenant General 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 defense intelligence. Over a 34-year career in uniform, General Palumbo led both conventional and special operations forces in peacetime and combat, commanded at every echelon, and ultimately served as the Director for Defense Intelligence - one of the most senior intelligence positions in the U.S. military establishment.In that role, General Palumbo simultaneously led the Pentagon's Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) 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 defense technology, intelligence collection, and operational communications gives him a firsthand understanding of exactly the threat environment Sekur's platforms are engineered to defeat.Special Operations, Combat Command, and Defense StrategyGeneral 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 (JSOC), as Deputy Commanding General of the United States Army Special Operations Command (USASOC), 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, General Palumbo founded Venturi Solutions LLC, a defense strategy firm delivering solutions across the aerospace, defense, 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 advisor to McKinsey's Aerospace and Defense practice - bringing the full weight of his military and private sector experience to Sekur's strategic leadership.General Palumbo's Role at Sekur Private DataAs Chairman of Sekur's Strategic Advisory Board, General Palumbo will provide executive-level strategic guidance on Sekur's expansion into military and defense communications markets, advise on the development of government and defense procurement strategies, and leverage his extensive network across the U.S. defense establishment, special operations community, and Intelligence Community to position Sekur as the secure communications platform of choice for military and defense-sector customers.General Palumbo will work in close coordination 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 roadmap with defense and government market requirements, advance the company's positioning as a trusted CUI-compliant platform, and guide Sekur's engagement with defense contractors, federal agencies, and military commands.A Strategic Advisory Board Built for the Defense MarketThe appointment of Lieutenant General Palumbo as Chairman signals Sekur's deliberate and accelerating commitment to the military, defense, and government communications market. General Palumbo's operational military command experience and John Lewis's technical intelligence and defense communications expertise form a leadership combination uniquely positioned to navigate the complex procurement, security certification, and operational requirements of defense and government customers worldwide.Raymond 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 defense-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 honored to chair Sekur's Strategic Advisory Board and committed to helping bring these capabilities to the military and defense communities that need them most."Alain Ghiai, CEO of Sekur, commented: "The appointment of Lt. 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 defense intelligence at the Pentagon, and advising the highest levels of the U.S. defense establishment gives Sekur a level of military credibility and strategic access that simply cannot be manufactured. General Palumbo will guide our military and defense sector strategy, lead our Strategic Advisory Board, and help us fulfill our mission of becoming the world's most trusted defense-grade secure communications platform - including our commitment to becoming a recognized leader in Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) protection for defense 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."About Lieutenant General Raymond Palumbo, U.S. Army (Ret.)Lieutenant General Raymond Palumbo is a retired U.S. Army Three-Star General with 34 years of uniformed service leading conventional and special operations forces in peacetime and combat. He completed his military career as Director for Defense Intelligence and Commander of the Pentagon's ISR Task Force. He served as Assistant Commanding General of the Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC), Deputy Commanding General of the U.S. Army Special Operations Command, and Commander of U.S. Army Alaska. He is the founder and senior partner of Venturi Solutions LLC and currently serves on the boards of ELTA North America Inc., W.S. Darley & Company, Inc., Quantum Systems Inc., and Tekscend Photomasks Round Rock, Inc.

Sekur Private Data Appoints Retired CIA Senior Intelligence Service Expert John T. Lewis as Chief Technology Officer and Strategic Advisory Board MemberApril 20, 2026 8:30 AM
ACCESS Newswire34-Year CIA Veteran, Trailblazer Medal Recipient, and Pioneer of Groundbreaking Intelligence Capabilities Brings Unmatched Expertise in Secure Systems, RF Technologies, and Operational Security to Sekur's Leadership Team - Leading Sekur's entry into defense communications technologyMIAMI, FL / ACCESS Newswire / April 20, 2026 / Sekur Private Data, Inc., a Miami based leading Swiss-hosted cybersecurity, private communications, and defense communications company serving enterprise, government, and defense clients, and wholly owned U.S. based subsidiary of Sekur Private Data (OTCQB:SWISF)(CSE:SKUR)(FRA:GDT0) ("Sekur" or the "Company"), is pleased to announce the appointment of John T. Lewis, a retired CIA Senior Intelligence Service Executive Expert and CIA Trailblazer Medal recipient, as the company's new Chief Technology Officer and a member of its Strategic Advisory Board. Mr. Lewis brings over 34 years of front-line experience in the development, deployment, and leadership of some of the most sensitive technical intelligence capabilities in the U.S. Intelligence Community - making him uniquely qualified to advance Sekur's mission of delivering world-class privacy and secure communications to individuals, enterprises, and governments worldwide.Securing the Signal: A Career in Defense Communications Comes to Sekur Private DataThroughout his CIA career, Mr. Lewis was at the forefront of developing secure systems and communications capabilities that operated in the world's most hostile environments. From hands-on engineering of clandestine RF systems to helping lead the CIA's Federal Laboratory and shaping Intelligence Community-wide research strategy, his career was defined by one constant: ensuring that sensitive information and communications remain protected against the most sophisticated adversaries on earth.That expertise arrives at a pivotal moment for Sekur. The company is actively expanding into military and defense communications markets - sectors where the margin for error is zero and the adversaries are state-level. Mr. Lewis's decades of experience building and operating sensitive capabilities against exactly those adversaries, positions Sekur to meet the rigorous standards demanded by defense and government customers. His appointment signals that Sekur is not merely adapting commercial privacy tools for defense use - it is building a defense-communications capability from the ground up, with leadership that has operated at the sharpest edge of that mission.A Career Built on Securing the Impossible
John T. Lewis joined the CIA in 1988 as a Technical Operations Officer in the Directorate of Science & Technology's Office of Technical Services, engineering and deploying novel, one-of-a-kind secure systems in support of the CIA's most sensitive missions. His work spanned microprocessor design, RF systems, antenna design, circuit design, and complex device integration - all in environments where failure was not an option and operational security was absolute.Over the following two decades, he served as Senior Program Manager and Technical Developer for the CIA's Information Operations Center (1999-2006) and the Office of Technical Collection (2006-2009), leading complex R&D, production, and deployment efforts for Information Operations and RF MASINT capabilities in partnership with industry, academia, and National Laboratories. It was this work that earned him the CIA Trailblazer Medal in 2007 - recognition reserved for officers who develop groundbreaking capabilities that fundamentally advance the CIA's mission.Mr. Lewis subsequently served in the Directorate of Operations as Senior Technical Operations Officer in Latin America (2009-2013), Deputy Chief of Station (2013-2016), and Chief of Science & Technology for a DO Division (2016-2018) - roles that gave him deep operational insight into how adversaries exploit vulnerabilities in communications and data security, and what it takes to defeat them.In the final phase of his CIA career, John Lewis served as Senior Scientist in the Directorate of Science & Technology's Global Reach Office before being selected to help establish and lead the CIA Research Labs - the CIA's first chartered Federal Laboratory. As Deputy Director and Chief Technology Officer from 2020 to 2023, he helped build the organization from scratch, developing research strategies, standing up Innovation Accelerator Centers, and launching the CIA's Intellectual Property Management Program. He retired from the CIA in 2023 after 34 years of distinguished service.John Lewis stated, "I am honored to have the opportunity to be a part of the Sekur team. Having worked with the outstanding group at Sekur for the past few months, I have seen first-hand the drive and commitment to providing a unique, secure environment to protect sensitive communication and engagement without the potential liabilities of "secure" communications apps that have become commonplace. I look forward to the opportunity to help shape the future of Sekur and their efforts to develop and deliver new capabilities and enhanced user experiences while protecting the interests of Government, business, and individuals. Based upon my experiences, I see a direct need for the Sekur tool suite, and positive impacts from those capabilities. I see examples every day that would benefit from these tools. Working with Sekur to develop an on-prem model for their tool suite will provide a unique, and managed, trusted platform for enabling secure email and messaging with confidence for Government mission needs."Alain Ghiai, CEO of Sekur, commented: "We are thrilled to welcome John Lewis to the Sekur family. His career at the CIA represents the gold standard of technical intelligence expertise - the kind of real-world experience protecting communications against nation-state-level threats that simply cannot be replicated in the commercial sector. Having John as our CTO and on our Strategic Advisory Board will accelerate our technology roadmap, deepen our push into military and defense communications, and establish Sekur as a trusted leader in Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) protection - a rapidly growing requirement across defense contractors, federal agencies, and government supply chains worldwide. John's appointment reinforces our commitment to being the world's most trusted platform for secure, private communications at every classification level."Mr. Lewis's Role at Sekur Private DataAs Chief Technology Officer of Sekur Private Data Inc., Mr. Lewis will lead Sekur's technology strategy and product development direction, bringing an intelligence community perspective to the company's suite of secure communication products. He will work closely with Sekur's engineering teams to evaluate and enhance the security architecture underlying SekurMessenger, SekurMail, SekurVPN and its STMR (Sekur Tactical Mobile Router) and the upcoming SekurPhone, and will guide the company's approach to emerging threats and privacy-preserving technologies.As a member of the Strategic Advisory Board, Mr. Lewis will advise Sekur's executive leadership on technology roadmap priorities, government and enterprise market opportunities, Intelligence Community and national security sector partnerships, and the evolving global threat landscape as it relates to private data and secure communications.About John T.

The Strategic Advisory Board will first focus on Government and Federal Agencies, Law Enforcement, Intelligence Community, Defense and Special Operations sectors, reflecting the need for new capabilities to offer communications for Controlled Unclassified Information in various government sectors.The Company is pleased to announce the following people as members of the Strategic Advisory Board.Philip A. Oakley - Clearance Level TS/SCIPhilip Oakley is a highly decorated intelligence professional and entrepreneur, holding dual master's degrees in Strategic Intelligence and National Security from the Joint Military Intelligence College and Naval War College respectively, alongside further graduate qualifications in Education Administration. He is a Certified Intelligence Community Officer, Certified Imagery Analyst, and Certified Counterintelligence Agent - credentials that underpin a career spanning elite military intelligence, academia, and private enterprise.His military career placed him at the highest levels of national security. Based at the Pentagon, Philip prepared and delivered intelligence briefings to the President, Vice President, Secretary of Defense, and Joint Chiefs of Staff, producing over 200 threat assessments to senior leadership. He was notably hand-picked by the Joint Staff J2 to attend the Naval War College - a rare distinction for an Army officer - where he authored a seminal paper recommending the establishment of a Homeland Defense Agency, a concept realized shortly after in the creation of the Department of Homeland Security. During a critical North Korea standoff, he developed an intelligence exchange program that increased production by over 200%, briefing General Officers and the Undersecretary of Defense directly.Philip was assigned to duty stations including but not limited to the National Ground Intelligence Center (NGIC), Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) Bolling Air Force Base, US Forces Korea, and the J2 Pentagon. Among his assignments, he was leading an element that prepared the Daily Intelligence Briefings for the Secretary of Defense and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and provided briefings to the President of the United States, is also a certified Intelligence Community Officer (ICO). Philip has numerous military awards including Multiple Army Accommodation Medals, Good Conduct Medals, Meritorious Service Medals, and several Defense Meritorious Service Medals.In academia, Philip served as both Adjunct and Full-Time Professor of Strategic Intelligence at the Joint Military Intelligence College, developing curriculum for over thirty courses and mentoring dozens of graduate thesis committees. He also was personally chosen by the Commanding General of the US Army Intelligence School to shape requirements for Army-wide strategic intelligence officers.As founder and CEO of i3 Integrative Creative Solutions, Philip has translated this extraordinary background into a thriving Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Business, building sales teams that have exceeded $1.6 billion over 15 years, delivering cutting-edge technology solutions - including Palantir, IBM, and Pixia - to federal, state, and intelligence community clients.Philip Oakley stated, "I was honored to be asked to be part of the Sekur Strategic Advisory Board. Over the last 16 years I've been part of several technology companies' sales and success in federal sales spaces with over US$1.6 billion in sales within my group of companies. Besides the technical differentiators that will greatly impact the controlled but unclassified information ("CUI") environment, Sekur has assembled an amazing team of federal experienced individuals, joining in the coming weeks. The soon-to-be announced names greatly enhance the credibility of this amazing technology. Simply put, the investment in the federal team speaks volumes about the direction this innovative company is headed in."Kenneth D. Rogers (Ken Rogers)Ken Rogers is a seasoned senior government and technology executive with a rare blend of experience across five U.S. federal agencies, multinationals, startups, and global NGOs. He retired in 2024 from the U.S. State Department and was awarded the prestigious Director General's Cup during the Foreign Affairs Day Celebration in 2025. This award recognizes individuals from the contemporary generation of career civil and foreign service employees who have demonstrated exceptional service and commitment and was only issued to two members in 2024.??With over 15 years at the U.S. Department of State, where he rose to serve as Deputy CIO for Business Management and Planning, IT Comptroller, and Chief Digital Strategist. In these roles he held direct budgetary responsibility of approximately US$1.3 billion while overseeing a global $3.8 billion IT portfolio spanning 85,000 personnel across more than 300 locations worldwide. He led IT strategic workforce planning, acquisitions, enterprise architecture, and portfolio management, while serving as the primary liaison between the State Department, the White House, and the Office of Management and Budget. Key achievements included implementing FITARA, developing the Department's cloud strategy, and re-engineering IT acquisition across the organisation.Prior to his State Department tenure, Ken served as Chief Information Officer at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's Science & Technology Directorate, where he oversaw a $75 million IT portfolio supporting a $1.3 billion homeland security R&D organization. His remit encompassed IT investments, infrastructure, interoperability across DHS labs, DOE National Labs, and Academic Centers of Excellence, ensuring full regulatory compliance across a complex and sensitive technology environment.Alongside his government roles, Ken served as Faculty Chair for Cyberspace Strategies at the National Defense University's College of Information and Cyberspace, educating military, civilian, and international leaders on securing and managing information technology at the enterprise level. He has also advised foreign governments on national IT governance strategies, reflecting a breadth of influence that extends well beyond domestic policy.Ken was immediately attracted to Sekur‘s solutions set because of its ability to provide more secure communications between the Department of States and its diplomatic counterparts in over 200 countries using voice and video call, messaging and email capabilities. These tools also provide other civilian agencies with similar needed capabilities including the Department of Homeland Security's engagement with first responders' nationwide.Ken Rogers stated, "I am honored to be part of the Sekur leadership team and look forward to bringing this groundbreaking secure messaging and communications platform to industry and government. Sekur delivers a world-class end-to-end encrypted solution designed to ensure that sensitive documents and information are shared only with their intended audiences-privately, securely, and with confidence."Alain Ghiai, CEO of Sekur, commented: "We are honored to welcome Philip Oakley and Kenneth Rogers to our Strategic Advisory Board.

MIAMI, FL / ACCESS Newswire / February 24, 2026 / Sekur Private Data, Inc., a leading Swiss-hosted cybersecurity and private communications platform, and wholly owned subsidiary of Sekur Private Data (OTCQB:SWISF)(CSE:SKUR)(FRA:GDT0) ("Sekur" or the "Company"), is pleased to announce that its software portfolio has been approved and listed under i3 Integrated Creative Solutions (i3ICS) on the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) Multiple Award Schedule (MAS), Contract No. 47QTCA18D0089.
This listing enables eligible federal, state, and local government customers to procure Sekur's solutions through a streamlined, pre-competed acquisition channel, reducing procurement friction and accelerating deployment for mission and enterprise environments.
i3ICS is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) and established federal IT contractor supporting government customers through proven delivery and contracting pathways. With Sekur now available via i3ICS's GSA MAS contract, agencies can leverage an acquisition approach aligned to U.S. government purchasing standards and oversight expectations.
Sekur's solutions are designed to help government organizations protect sensitive communications, reduce exposure to interception and unauthorized access, and strengthen operational security in today's evolving cyber threat landscape. Sekur's architecture supports privacy-centric communications while offering U.S. government buyers a familiar, compliant route to purchase through a trusted U.S. contract holder.
Philip E. Parrott, Executive Vice President and GSA Contract Manager at i3ICS, stated:
"Government customers want solutions that are secure, scalable, and easy to buy through trusted established channels. Listing Sekur on our GSA MAS contract gives agencies a direct, efficient path to acquire secure and private communications capabilities with the speed and confidence that MAS procurement provides."
Ken Rogers, one of Sekur's National Security Team member ("NST") and recent State Department Retiree who served as its Deputy CIO of Business and Management Planning (acting) and managed billions of dollars in Federal Acquisitions believes this is a game Changer. Ken stated, "I am pleased to see that Sekur has put into place a new GSA Schedule for their secure Mail, Messaging, VPN and encrypted Voice and Video communications solutions, demonstrating their deep commitment to bringing this critical technology to the U.S. Federal marketplace. Sekur provides secure and private end-to-end encrypted software solutions for keeping mission critical, national security, and business communications safe. In addition, Sekur's privacy solutions operate globally in low latency environments. In my 30 Plus years of IT integration at various Government organizations, I can say that one of the most critical tools needed is to have a Government contract vehicle. After the Government says yes, the first question is, "How can we get to you for a contract?" Stating you are on a GSA contract is great, it is even better that you have partnered with a Certified Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business."
Alain Ghiai, CEO of Sekur stated, "This is a significant milestone for Sekur and our U.S. public sector growth strategy. Partnering with i3ICS and securing placement on their GSA MAS contract expands our reach across federal, state, and local agencies seeking modern secure communications capabilities. We're making it easier for government customers to procure and deploy secure communications solutions through a well-established acquisition vehicle. We look forward to supporting mission customers with secure privacy solutions designed to reduce data exposure, enhance confidentiality, and strengthen operational security."

Core Government Communications Solutions:
Sekur allows for private and secure communications, operable within and outside the Sekur network, bypassing traditional telecom systems and eliminating phone record hacking. None of the solutions data mine or location track users. None of Sekur's solutions rely on Big Tech infrastructure. On special requests, Sekur can install on-premises servers at government locations.
SekurMail: An encrypted and private email solution designed exclusively for those who operate at the highest levels of government with zero reliance on Big Tech, no tracking, and proprietary encryption. It ensures that your most sensitive communications remain strictly confidential, both for sender and recipient with features like SekurSend/SekurReply (for secure sending to non-Sekur users without revealing identities and content), full email delivery control, automatic data export, file transfer and more. It supports custom domains and counters phishing or Business Email Compromise (BEC) attacks.
SekurMessenger: A secure chat app with end-to-end encryption, self-destructing messages, file transfers, encrypted voice recordings, and archiving, for compliance. It allows private communication even with non-Sekur users through its Chat-by-Invite via SMS or email invites. Each user received a Sekur ID for contact vetting, and there is no phone number required for account registration.
SekurVPN: A privacy-focused VPN using military-grade encryption and proprietary HeliX technology for secure internet browsing, protecting online actions and identity without logging data.
SekurRelay: An enterprise email add-on that "splits" a company's domain, allowing executives to use Sekur's secure features (e.g., SekurSend) without migrating the entire organization-addressing a major barrier for large-scale adoption by governments.
Sekur Platinum Bundle: A bundle of SekurMail, SemurMessenger, SekurVPN, and Private and secure Voice & Video encrypted communications with proprietary, non-VoIP technology. Call-by-Invite via SMS or email invites. Each user received a Sekur ID for contact vetting, and there is no phone number required for account registration.

SEKUR PRIVATE DATA (SYMBOL: SWISF) AI Powered Cyber CriminalsAre Here. Are You Prepared?
https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ja7jpy3q8s591f2hhzcwu/Report-SWISF.pdf?rlkey=2iqzihx7b0gd0cmfjk94v52b4&e=3&dl=0
Summary of the SWISF (Sekur Private Data) Report
1. Core Thesis
AI-powered cybercriminals are growing rapidly, making traditional security tools (like free antivirus or big-tech email/messaging apps) insufficient. Sekur Private Data (ticker: SWISF) offers a highly secure, Swiss-hosted communications platform designed to prevent breaches by eliminating the typical “entry points” hackers exploit.
The report argues that Sekur is a small company with potentially huge upside if adoption increases—especially now that it has partnered with Quaestor Federal.
2. Major Catalyst: Partnership With Quaestor Federal
Sekur announced a major sales/technology partnership with Quaestor Federal Consulting, one of the most successful federal contractors in the U.S.
Why this is huge
Quaestor sells to the CIA, DOD, DHS, State Department, federal labs, and more.
They are known for introducing companies like Palantir, IBM solutions, Pixia, Apptio, Isilon into government.
They only work with products they believe are best-in-class.
Quaestor created a National Security Team specifically featuring Sekur technology to target government cyber-crime defense.
The report suggests this is unusually high-level validation for a company valued under $10M.
3. Sekur’s Product Offering
Sekur provides a suite of “Fortress Grade” secure communications tools:
SekurMail (encrypted email, anti-phishing, SekurSend/SekurReply)
SekurMessenger (secure chat with self-destructing messages, “chat-by-invite”)
SekurVPN
Archiving/compliance tools (important for finance, legal, government)
Swiss-hosted data centers (not AWS, no big-tech involvement)
Zero-knowledge architecture (Sekur cannot access user data)
Target markets:
High-net-worth individuals
Government agencies
Corporate executives
Diplomats
First responders
International markets (Africa, Ireland, Mexico launch announced)
4. Why Sekur Says They Are Safer
Most breaches occur through:
Misconfigured cloud services (AWS, GCP, Microsoft)
Free email/messaging apps that mine data
Insecure API endpoints
Sekur removes these vulnerabilities by:
Not using big-tech cloud
Keeping everything isolated within Swiss private servers
Avoiding advertising/data mining
Eliminating the “entry/exit doors” cybercriminals exploit
5. Business Model & Revenue Potential
Sekur charges ~$90/month for its full suite.
Big selling point from the report
Just 100,000 users = $108M/year
Current market cap ˜ $5M
Implied potential valuation at moderate price-to-sales could be 20× to 100× higher
They compare Sekur’s early stage to ProtonMail’s explosive growth (0 ? 100M users in ~5 years).
6. User Growth Milestones
The report suggests watching:
10,000 users
25,000 users
50,000 users
75,000 users
100,000 users
Every milestone could significantly increase revenue and media/Wall-Street attention.
Government adoption could trigger a domino effect, as agencies typically wait for others to try a product first.
7. AI-Powered Cyber Threats
The report gives many examples of AI-enabled attacks:
Deepfake extortion
AI-written phishing
Automated vulnerability scanning
Attacks on individuals (Bezos, Biden, Musk, etc.)
Nation-state (North Korea, etc.) use of AI for social engineering
AI malware observed “in the wild”
The conclusion:
More criminals + more powerful tools = more breaches.
More breaches = higher demand for secure communications.
8. Investment Angle
The report argues Sekur is:
Extremely early-stage
Undervalued compared to AI-sector valuations
Potentially positioned to grow massively if government deals begin
Similar to buying ProtonMail early or NVDA pre-run
They emphasize that selling early (ex: at $0.05–$0.10) could be a major mistake if adoption takes off.
9. Final Conclusion
Sekur is positioned to:
Capitalize on the exploding AI-driven cyber-crime problem
Provide secure communication tools for high-value targets
Potentially land federal/government contracts through Quaestor
Grow from a micro-cap into a medium-sized cybersecurity player
The opportunity: early entry before major contract announcements.
The risk: small company, speculative, adoption must grow.
