Encryption and cyber security
Asperiq is an independent European company that develops, integrates and
maintains cyber protection solutions
and cryptographically protected communications systems for governments,
NGOs and critical infrastructures [1]. The company is part of the Swedish
Asperiq Group AB, and has offices in Sweden and Switzerland, and local presence
in South East Asia and the Middle East.
Asperiq Group AB was established in December 2017 in Sweden, and is owned by the
Swedish entrepreneurs Andreas and Emma Linde [2].
Linde is also the founder of the Swedish Crypto International Group AB.
In 2018, Linde bought the assets of the Swiss crypto firm
Crypto AG (Hagelin)
with the intent to continue its product portfolio
as Crypto International AG.
In February 2020, it was revealed by the German, Swiss and American press,
that since 1970, Crypto AG
had secretly been owned
by the Western intelligence
agencies BND and CIA, and that the CIA had been the sole owner until
the purchase by Linde in 2018 [4].
In the aftermath of the revelations, the Swiss
Government suspended the company's export licence, after which Linde
layed off 83 of its 85 employees. A day later Linde registered
a new company — Asperiq AG — with the Swiss Chamber of Commerce, which became
effective on 7 August 2020 [3][5].
