Sekur Private Data Ltd. Receives Management Approval to Accept Crypto Currencies as Payment Form for Sekur Swiss Hosted Privacy Communications Solutions - Correction from Aug 14th, 2025, Release
Move comes amid increased demand for Sekur solutions from the crypto community targeted by cyber hackers worldwide
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / August 18, 2025 / Sekur Private Data Ltd. (OTCQB:SWISF)(CSE:SKUR)(FRA:GDT0) ("Sekur" or the "Company"), a leading Swiss-hosted cybersecurity and private communications platform, is pleased to announce that it has received approval from its Management to accept crypto currency as a form of payment for Sekur's Swiss hosted privacy communications solutions. The previous press release of August 14th erroneously stated that the approval came from the Auditors of the Company. The Company wishes to apologize for any confusion this may have caused.
The Company's Management has given the go ahead to integrate with its existing payment processor, giving Sekur the possibility of accepting any crypto currency while settling in fiat currencies. The Company's payment processor is already SOC 2 certified and expects the integration to be completed by Q4of this year, barring any unforeseen event.
According to a Chainanalysis study, with over US$2.17 billion stolen from cryptocurrency services so far in 2025, this year is more devastating than the entirety of 2024. By the end of June 2025, 17% more value had been stolen year-to-date (YTD) than in 2022, previously the worst year on record. Personal wallet compromises now represent a growing share of total ecosystem theft, with attackers increasingly targeting individual users, making up 23.35% of all stolen fund activity YTD in 2025.
Sekur's new demand from the crypto community is due to the explosion in Business Email Compromise ("BEC") attacks, SMS Fishing and chat applications hacks all big tech open source solutions. Sekur's communications suite of Email, Chat and VPN, offerscountermeasures to BEC attacks through its SekurSend proprietary feature, and offers other protections against internet spying on VPN users and messaging hacks such as the latest WhatsApp or Signal hacking incidents reported in the press.
Sekur's new features include 20 alias emails for Individual plans, catering to an increasingly private clientele, notably the crypto community, offering full anonymity and protection against cyber hackers. SekurMessenger offers privacy through its no phone number registered policy, while offering chats between SekurMessenger and non-SekurMessenger users through its chat by invite feature. These added security protections offer extra shield against identity theft.
Sekur's platform is proprietary and hosted in Switzerland for optimal security and privacy compliance. It offers multiple privacy advantages, such as no contact or data mining, no location mining and secure and private communication within and outside of the Sekur network, offering privacy and security for both sender and recipient without divulging either phone number or identity, using its SekurSend and Chat by Invite features.
Alain Ghiai, CEO of Sekur stated, "We are very pleased to have our existing SOC2 Compliant payment processor offer Crypto conversion to USD for our Sekur solutions payments. With this, Sekur can now increase its reach to a new market looking for protection from identity theft. This environment is perfect to increase Sekur's awareness as we are off grid, off big tech and we never data mine or location mine your communications. Sekur is meant to protect against phishing, Business Email Compromise attacks, AI hacks, and chat and SMS hacks."
