Our Story
Early Innovations Leading to Our Foundation
The team that would become Jetico commenced the development of encryption products. The first project was to design a customized chip to implement the complex GOST28147-89 encryption algorithm. Our LS06 RISC cryptoprocessor achieved top performance on the market. In 1994, we designed encryption hardware for personal computers based on the LS06C20 cryptoprocessor.
Jetico’s Foundation
Jetico board member, Tommi Rasila, founded Jetico in Tampere, Finland along with a team of highly skilled developers. Sergey Frolov and Alexander Pichuev have been leading Jetico development since the beginning.
BestCrypt software was developed step-by-step, beginning from a command-line encryption utility for DOS to 32-bit software for Windows 98/ME/NT/2000/XP, and then to 64-bit versions of Windows 10/8/7/Vista/XP/Windows Server 2003.
Establishing the Foundations of the Wiping Industry
For over fifteen years, we have been working on a line of secure data deletion software – BCWipe and BCWipe Total WipeOut (formerly known as BCWipePD). The software is now in use by a significant number of government agencies around the world. Since it was published in the U.S. press, we can say on the record that our BCWipe software was used by Bill Clinton’s administration in the White House.
Cross-Platform Expansion
Today, Jetico offers BestCrypt and BCWipe for Windows, Linux and Mac. The portfolio has expanded to include solutions for Android, reflecting our commitment to addressing the evolving needs of users across various platforms.
We have built-in compatibility between encryption data formats for all our products. A user who bought BestCrypt for DOS4.x in 1993 and encrypted some data then, can now access it using our latest software.
Thank You
We would like to thank everyone who has over the years provided us with comments and suggestions for software enhancements and additions. Read more about Our Gratitude.
Many of the suggestions have been incorporated into the software. Without them, our products would not be what they are. To share your feedback, please contact us.
