signal.org /docs. The Signal Protocol (formerly known as the TextSecure Protocol) is a non- federated cryptographic protocol that provides end-to-end encryption for voice and instant messaging conversations. [2] The protocol was developed by Open Whisper Systems in 2013 [2] and was introduced in the open-source TextSecure app, which later ...
Off-the-record Messaging (OTR) is a cryptographic protocol that provides encryption for instant messaging conversations. OTR uses a combination of AES symmetric-key algorithm with 128 bits key length, the Diffie–Hellman key exchange with 1536 bits group size, and the SHA-1 hash function. In addition to authentication and encryption, OTR ...
Open Whisper Systems. Open Whisper Systems (abbreviated OWS[7]) was a software development group [8] that was founded by Moxie Marlinspike in 2013. The group picked up the open source development of TextSecure and RedPhone, and was later responsible for starting the development of the Signal Protocol [9] and the Signal messaging app.
TextSecure was an encrypted messaging application for Android that was developed from 2010 to 2015. It was a predecessor to Signal and the first application to use the Signal Protocol, which has since been implemented into WhatsApp and other applications. TextSecure used end-to-end encryption to secure the transmission of text messages, group ...
5.1 was completely backwards compatible with the RCS-e V1.2 and RCS 5.0 specifications. It introduced additional new features such as Group Chat Store & Forward, File Transfer in Group Chat, File Transfer Store & Forward, and Best Effort Voice Call, as well as lessons-learnt and bug fixes from the V1.2 interoperability testing efforts.
Keybase is a key directory that maps social media identities to encryption keys (including, but not limited to PGP keys) in a publicly auditable manner. [2] Additionally it offers an end-to-end encrypted chat and cloud storage system, [3][4] called Keybase Chat and the Keybase Filesystem respectively. Files placed in the public portion of the ...
An anonymous P2P communication system is a peer-to-peer distributed application in which the nodes, which are used to share resources, or participants are anonymous or pseudonymous. [1] Anonymity of participants is usually achieved by special routing overlay networks that hide the physical location of each node from other participants.
In the published paper, they "provide a fully automated proof of the soundness of MTProto 2.0’s protocols for authentication, normal chat, end-to-end encrypted chat, and re-keying mechanisms with respect to several security properties, including authentication, integrity, confidentiality and perfect forward secrecy...MTProto 2.0 is assumed to ...
