With this lower pricing option, customers have greater availability for safeguarding their communications – whether for personal use or to protect hundreds of business devices."

"During our company's phenomenal growth over the past eight months, our steady focus has been to deliver a simple, easy to use and secure service as required by all types of customers," added Spencer Snedecor, Silent Circle's Chief Revenue Officer.

This includes personal users who simply desire private and secure communications, as well as business and government users with complex mobile device demands who need to ensure employees have a full suite of encrypted apps for secure communications and collaboration no matter where they are in the world. Silent Circle stands alone as uniquely able to meet all of these customers' demands."

In addition to the new pricing for the Silent Suite offering, Silent Circle's optional Out-Circle Access service is now priced at $24 per month.
