Secret Messenger Apps.


             Cyber world today offers very little or no privacy and there has been many privacy solutions but are not used by many people. There are some Apps which offers secrecy and anonymity. Some of the Apps are listed here.

#Telegram :

               When comes to messenging the name comes to the mind is WhatsApp to all but there is an application named #Telegram. Few might have used it one of the best feature is that it offers #Secret Chat. If you and your partner started a secret chat its a peer to peer connection and no server inbetween you two and nothing will be stored anywhere.

                Another thing is #Self Destructor. Set the timer and once it is off the message will start disappearing. Another feature is that if you take a screenshot in secret chat the partner in chat will be notified. 

                In its open challenge none cracked the Telegram encryption.


#Signal :

                Considered to be the most secure messenging app in world and it operates based on the phone number and all the messages are encrypted and the encryption is very strong and tested by many security researchers and the main thing is that Edward Snowden is said to be using this application.

                It is available for iOS and also in Android store for free download. Once installed validate the phone number and then it will crawl the contact and populate the list for you and another feature is that it doesnot save the contact list of your phone in its server.


#Richochet :

                 Coolest application ever used and is available for desktop as of the time of writing. Based on TOR network. All the messages routed through TOR to provide anonymity and eaves dropping. No server and no operator works peer to peer.

                   No name and no email and no sign up just you need the .onion address of your partner to chat and once the window has been closed all chat history cleared. Nice app to use for ultimate anonymity.

#TOR Messenger :

                     Dedicated TOR messenger by TOR project for anonymous messenging. Works on TOR network. It will take time to connect to TOR network and once connected you are like an invisible man (Your payload).

P.S : The post is to create awareness and not to create any negative impact.
