Communications that cannot be intercepted
In an era of increasing surveillance and data breaches, secure communications are not optional: they are essential. Minutes Network's Secure Communications platform provides end-to-end encrypted voice, messaging, and file sharing that meets the strictest security requirements of government, military, healthcare, legal, and financial organisations.
End-to-end encryption
Every call, message, and file is encrypted on the sender's device and only decrypted on the recipient's device. Our zero-knowledge architecture means that even our own servers never have access to your plaintext communications.
Zero-knowledge architecture
Encryption keys are generated and stored exclusively on user devices. Minutes Network servers handle only encrypted data: our zero-knowledge architecture means we do not have access to your plaintext communications.
Enterprise-grade security
Built on AES-256 encryption with the Signal Protocol for key exchange. The same encryption standards used by military and intelligence agencies worldwide, built on openly published, peer-reviewed protocols.
Identity verification
Cryptographic identity verification ensures you are always communicating with the intended recipient. Out-of-band verification, QR code scanning, and certificate pinning prevent man-in-the-middle attacks.
Audit logging
Comprehensive audit logs track access events, authentication attempts, and administrative actions without exposing message content. Meet regulatory requirements for accountability while maintaining absolute privacy.
Multi-factor authentication
Mandatory MFA with support for hardware tokens (YubiKey, FIDO2), biometric authentication, TOTP codes, and SMS verification. Configurable authentication policies per organisation with enforced complexity requirements.
Encrypted voice calling with crystal clarity
Our secure voice platform delivers HD-quality encrypted calls over any network. Whether you are on WiFi, 4G, or 5G, calls are protected with end-to-end encryption from the moment you dial until the call ends. Secure conference calling supports up to 50 participants with the same encryption guarantees.
- End-to-end encrypted 1:1 and group calls (up to 50 participants)
- HD voice with OPUS codec at 48kHz sampling rate
- SRTP/DTLS encryption for media streams
- PSTN breakout with secure SIP trunking (TLS + SRTP)
- Secure voicemail with encrypted storage and notifications
Encrypted messaging with self-destruct
Send messages, images, videos, and documents with full end-to-end encryption. Self-destructing messages automatically delete from both sender and recipient devices after a configurable time period. Perfect for sensitive discussions that should leave no digital footprint.
- Signal Protocol encryption for all messages
- Self-destructing messages (1 minute to 30 days)
- Encrypted group chats with up to 500 members
- Secure file sharing up to 100MB per file (encrypted at rest)
- Screenshot prevention and forwarding restrictions
Built on proven cryptographic protocols
We do not invent our own cryptography. Our platform is built on industry-standard, openly published and peer-reviewed encryption protocols.
AES-256 encryption
All data at rest is encrypted with AES-256, the Advanced Encryption Standard, the same standard used to protect classified government information. With 2^256 possible keys, brute-force attacks are computationally infeasible: it would take longer than the age of the universe to crack a single key.
Signal Protocol
Key exchange and session management use the Signal Protocol, the gold standard for secure messaging. Double Ratchet Algorithm provides forward and future secrecy, compromising one session key cannot expose other messages.
TLS 1.3 & SRTP
All signalling uses TLS 1.3 with certificate pinning to prevent interception. Voice media is protected with SRTP using DTLS key exchange, securing both the control plane and media plane independently.
VPN integration
For maximum security, our platform integrates with enterprise VPN solutions including WireGuard, IPsec, and OpenVPN. Route all communications through your corporate VPN for an additional layer of network-level encryption and access control.

}Meeting the world's strictest regulatory requirements
Our secure communications platform is designed from the ground up to meet compliance requirements across healthcare, finance, government, and legal industries.
Designed for GDPR
Full compliance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation. Our platform enforces data minimisation, purpose limitation, and privacy-by-design principles, with end-to-end encryption, granular access controls, comprehensive audit logging, and Data Processing Agreement (DPA) availability.
Enterprise-grade encryption
All communications are secured with TLS 1.3 for signalling and SRTP for media streams, ensuring enterprise-grade protection across every channel. Regular penetration testing and adherence to industry security best practices ensure continuous protection against evolving threats.
SOC 2 aligned
Regular third-party audits validate our security controls, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy practices. Our practices are aligned with SOC 2 principles, demonstrating our ongoing commitment to operational security excellence.
Aligned with ISO 27001
Our Information Security Management System is aligned with ISO 27001 standards. This covers our security policies, risk management processes, and continuous improvement programme for information security.
Regular security audits
Independent third-party penetration testing and security assessments are conducted regularly. Findings are remediated promptly, and audit reports are available to enterprise customers under NDA.
Data protection standards
Our encryption and access control measures are designed to meet the requirements of organisations handling sensitive financial and healthcare communications, with comprehensive audit logging and data residency controls.
Deploy your way: cloud, on-premise, or hybrid
Choose the deployment model that best fits your security requirements, IT infrastructure, and regulatory obligations.
Cloud hosted
Deploy on Minutes Network's secure cloud infrastructure with data centres in the US, EU, UK, and Asia-Pacific. Fully managed with automatic updates, 99.99% uptime SLA, and geographic data residency options. Ideal for most organisations seeking fast deployment and minimal operational overhead.
On-premise
Deploy the complete secure communications stack within your own data centre or private cloud. Full control over infrastructure, data, and encryption keys. Ideal for government agencies, military organisations, and enterprises with strict data sovereignty requirements. Includes on-site installation support.
Hybrid
Combine cloud and on-premise components to create a tailored deployment. Keep sensitive encryption key management on-premise while leveraging cloud infrastructure for media relay and availability. Perfect for organisations transitioning to cloud while maintaining security controls.
Enterprise-grade secure SIP
Connect your existing PBX infrastructure to our secure communications platform via encrypted SIP trunking. All signalling is encrypted with TLS and all media with SRTP, ensuring that calls between your office and the outside world are protected from eavesdropping.
- SIP over TLS 1.3 for signalling encryption
- SRTP with DTLS key exchange for media encryption
- Compatible with the major IP PBX and unified communications platforms
- IP whitelisting and SIP digest authentication
