On January 1, 2007 the Global Islamic Media Front (GIMF) announced the
imminent release of new computer software called "Mujahideen Secret."

According to the advertisement for the software (see below), it is "the
first Islamic computer program for secure exchange [of information] on the
Internet," and it provides users with "the five best encryption algorithms,
and with symmetrical encryption keys (256 bit), asymmetrical encryption
keys (2048 bit) and data compression [tools]."
