An advisory body of Special Forces Command, Secret Service and Ministry of Foreign Affairs will be created within a few months. What is behind this personnel strategy from Sekur Private Data and why the US government market for secure communication is currently moving.
Authorities, the military and intelligence agencies in the United States are looking for communication solutions that are operated outside the infrastructure of large American technology companies. The theft of SIM card identities to circumvent security queries, computer-aided attempts to deceive by e-mail and the question of who gets access to stored communication data in an emergency drive this demand. If you want to position yourself in this segment, you need one thing above all: access to the right decision-makers in authorities and armed forces. This access usually creates networks that have grown over the years, not via advertising or price lists.
Sekur Private Data (ISIN: CA81607F1036, WKN: A3DKJ0), a communication company hosted in Switzerland with operational headquarters in Miami, has specifically purchased these networks in recent months. The result is a consulting body that is rarely found in this density of personnel in a company of this market capitalization.
Personnel building in several waves
In April, Sekur, Philip Oakley and Kenneth Rogers, brought two experts with many years of experience in sales to US federal authorities on board. Shortly afterwards, John T. Lewis joined, a former senior employee of the US foreign intelligence service CIA, who also took over the position of technical officer at Sekur. At the end of April, Lieutenant General Raymond Palumbo, a retired three-star general of the US Army, succeeded as chairman of the company’s strategic advisory board. In June, Nathan Price joined as Special Adviser for Diplomacy and Intelligence, and Annette Redmond, who served 40 years in the US government, most recently as Deputy State Secretary in the State Department.
Now Sekur is expanding this structure with a second, independent body called OpsTech. The new member is Rafael Beltran, who worked as a senior technical consultant at the US Special Operations Command (SOCOM) and was responsible for communication between management and emergency forces in 22 countries. Beltran has the highest security rating in the U.S. for access to sensitive news service information. His role goes beyond that of a representative advisory board: He brings operational requirements from field use directly into product development and accompanies the development of a mobile, off-road router for on-site use. With this, Sekur complements its previous software range of encrypted voice, video and text communication with a hardware product for the first time.
The division into two committees follows a clear division of labor. The strategic board with Palumbo, Lewis, Redmond, Oakley and Rogers covers management, diplomacy and the formal distribution channel in government agencies. The OpsTech committee around Beltran now potentially brings in those users who use communication technology under real operating conditions, such as in special operations in the field.
Legal framework for sales strengthened
In parallel with the building of personnel, Sekur has strengthened the sales base. Through an existing framework contract with the US Federal Procurement Authority GSA, the company already sells directly to federal authorities without having to go through a new procurement procedure for each order. In addition, there are two sales partnerships in the defense segment, including the provider Elyon International, which specializes in government customers. At the SOF Week 2026 conference in Tampa, one of the most important industry meetings for special forces suppliers, Sekur presented its solutions directly to SOCOM procurement managers.
Network opens up new sales opportunities
The share price has so far reacted only cautiously to the staff reports so far, and Sekur, with a market capitalization in the low double-digit million range, continues to move outside the perception of most investors. Several capital increases over the past twelve months secure the company’s liquidity. The decisive factor now is how quickly the established network leads to concrete contracts.
In a few months, Sekur has created a network of consultants that will open doors for the company that remain closed to most providers of this size: SOCOM, CIA, State Department and US Army are now sitting at the table. The complete expansion of the communication platform SekurOne announced for September and the first deliveries of the new tactical router put the company in the decisive turnover phase. The business figures on the 6th August provide the next concrete indication of how far Sekur has already progressed on this path.
