message encryption
Securing transmitted information
Message encryption is the process of converting readable text into coded form so only intended recipients can decipher it.
The technique protects communications from interception—emails, texts, financial data.
End-to-end encryption means only sender and receiver hold the keys to decode messages: The app uses message encryption so even the company can't read your chats.
