Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump ’s campaign is now using specialized, encrypted mobile phones and secure laptops in an effort to protect staff following a series of successful Iranian hacks.

The campaign recently purchased a package of these devices from Santa Barbara , California -based Green Hills Software , the developer of a proprietary, security-focused operating system.

The company sells a customized Android phone that comes pre-installed with its own unique operating system, stripping it of most functions aside from phone calling and text messaging, while implementing additional security controls.
