 In addition, we offer a secure satellite phone based on the Iridium Extreme, which we also developed with funding support from the U.S. government and which has been accredited by the National Security Agency, or NSA, to provide Type-1 encryption, enabling communications up to Top Secret from anywhere in the world. We also provide PNT services to the U.S. government, delivering a resilient and diverse PNT signal over the Iridium constellation, to provide an alternative position, navigation and timing (APNT) capability.
