/ad/?id=99579&sid=99116&from=69857 Washington, DC - EFJ, Inc. (NASDAQ: EFJI) announced that its Transcrypt International subsidiary has been selected as a supplier of voice security modules for the U.S. Army. The Company’s products are included as part of a package known collectively as the Military Bundle which includes Transcrypt voice privacy modules, an Icom radio, headset and other accessories to complete the custom package. The first significant order for the Military Bundle was originally announced in a November press release, in which the end user was not specified.

The Transcrypt voice privacy module is installed inside the radio and secures communications from unwanted listeners such as enemies, terrorists and insurgents. The new high-level security module was developed by Transcrypt engineers on an accelerated basis to a custom size needed for specific models of Icom radios. The plug-in style modules are very easy to install for ease of service under a variety of conditions. To assure proper operation during military maneuvers, the Military Bundle was extensively tested by the Army’s Battle Lab.

“We are proud to have Transcrypt products helping to secure the communications of our troops,” said Michael E. Jalbert, chairman and chief executive officer of EFJ, Inc. “Transcrypt is the leading brand of voice privacy solutions for two-way analog radios worldwide.
