Biography
From 1993 to 2008, the enterprise focused on developing a series of specialized communication technologies and developing qualitatively new principles and technologies for encrypted information. Specialized units were created based on digital signal processing methods in which the subsequent realization of each functional unit (speech-conversion, special mathematics, or modems) used real-time calculators operating on digital signal processors. This led to the development of a series of cipher machines designed for foreign and domestic commercial sales. In 2010, the Federal State Unitary Enterprise Scientific-Research Institute of Automation was reorganized by presidential degree into the open joint-stock company Concern Automation.
