Always bear in mind that every computer programe has a bug which means they are not 100% secured that is why hackers can always gain access through the bugs found in the programs |

flames007: There is a loophole though. If you backup your whatsapp message, then it has to be decrypted before backing up, and then whatsapp can view your messages, or even a good hacker. So never back up messages. 4 Likes |

I heard Telegram messages are not encrypted on group chat as of today. That is one major disadvantage using Telegram for serious business. |

flames007: Thee is an exception to this rule and if you read one of the last WhatsApp disclosure that you agreed to before continuing to use WhatsApp you will see it there…the exception is: If you are chatting with someone using a business account, that business or individual can hire a third party social media manager or someone to monitor their business WhatsApp messages in order to response to and address customer issues. In that case, there will be an API connection to the third party and all your messages can be seen by them and respond to by them and not just your intended receiver. 1 Like |

ItsGoodToBeGood: The end to end encryption means it's only decrypted by the recieving end. If the recieving end may further send the same message to another party. And the cycle goes on. End to end encryption simply means no other party can wiretap/decryt/eves drop on it, unless the message is intentionally sent to them. 1 Like |

GREATIGBOMAN: You don’t know how this thing works. They can’t view it. “ The security behind end-to-end encryption is enabled by the creation of a public-private key pair. This process, also known as asymmetric cryptography, employs separate cryptographic keys for securing and decrypting the message. Public keys are widely disseminated and are used to lock or encrypt a message. Private keys are only known by the owner and are used to unlock or decrypt the message. In end-to-end encryption, the system creates public and private cryptographic keys for each person who joins. An example Let’s say Alice and Bob create accounts on the system. The end-to-end encrypted system provides each with a public-private key pair, whereby their public keys are stored on the server and their private keys are stored on their device. Alice wants to send Bob an encrypted message. She uses Bob’s public key to encrypt her message to him. Then, when Bob receives the message, he uses his private key on his device to decrypt the message from Alice. When Bob wants to reply, he simply repeats the process, encrypting his message to Alice using Alice’s public key…” https://www.preveil.com/blog/end-to-end-encryption/ 3 Likes |

BlaqFaze: Telegram is more encrypted than WhatsApp. Ever wonder why what you discussed on WhatsApp sometimes shows up as advert on instagram and Facebook? Especially if the same email or Mobile number links all. Discuss about buying bed on WhatsApp and you might wake up to see furniture adverts on Facebook the next day. Ever wondered why? 3 Likes |

Hack without prior info (leak) of the system spec, config, user details.. into empty space, with no gain (fun/strength/cash) I've not seen. Leaks are from bridge, policies.. inside sender or receiver's device (keylogger, clone.. terms& condition you don't usually read, screenshot) Beware of those you call friends, including META |
