Communication Devices, Inc. (CDI) has been at the forefront of secure out-of-band management for decades, beginning with encryption systems developed for high-value electronic fund transfers in the U.S. banking sector. That security-first foundation positioned CDI to help shape the earliest national standards for cryptographic modules, including its leadership role in the development of FIPS 140-1.

Today, CDI is the only OOBM vendor validated under FIPS 140-3, ensuring compliance for federal medium- and high-security networks governed by FISMA. The company’s solutions are fully TAA compliant, Made in the USA, and engineered to meet stringent federal procurement and supply chain integrity requirements.

Unlike vendors that rely on the public internet, CDI provides a private, secure alternative by acting as a mobile virtual network operator and provisioning private APNs for major carriers. This architecture isolates management traffic, enhances security, and ensures resilient connectivity during outages, congestion, or emergencies.

CDI delivers an end-to-end turnkey model—preconfigured devices, private IP services, a centralized management platform, and direct engineering support. This approach dramatically reduces outage resolution time, eliminates costly site visits, and ensures consistent visibility across distributed environments.

The company continues to invest in evolving OOBM requirements with new 48-port data center solutions, enhanced FirstNet/Frontline-capable radios, and flexible deployment models spanning on-premises, cloud, and fully managed service options.

The guiding principle remains unchanged: security is the foundation—not an add-on—for every solution CDI delivers.
