Wickr announced the general availability of "Global Federation", a feature that will allow enterprise and government entities to securely communicate using end-to-end encryption with individual users and mission critical partners outside of their network.

With Global Federation, all Wickr users across RAM, Enterprise and free Pro and Me offerings can now intercommunicate using state of the art end-to-end encryption while maintaining the highest level of security, administrative control, and compliance.

"With Global Federation, Wickr is the first cross-functional E2EE product ecosystem and shadow IT killer on the market," said Chris Howell, Wickr's CTO and Co-Founder.

"Now, organizations finally have a way to let their users communicate securely with external parties without having them turn to unsanctioned apps. Wickr's Global Federation connects consumer, enterprise, government and military users, allowing them to communicate with the same unmatched level of data security, compliance and end-to-end encryption no matter which Wickr product is being used."

The Global Federation feature also allows organizations to choose what type of Wickr deployment they want - on-premise, cloud, managed or unmanaged - without the worry that another organization's choice will impact their ability to collaborate.

"Wickr's Global Federation provides the warfighter community with the enhanced capability to securely collaborate with civilians and public and private sector partners, no matter the location," said Vincent Stewart, LtGen USMC, former Deputy Commander, United States Cyber Command and former Director, Defense Intelligence Agency.
