Turn for WhatsApp messaging and phone calls will be encrypted – The Press

Turn to WhatsApp messaging and phone calls will be encrypted

No one, emphasizes the company’s blog, can enter the messages sent, “not even repressive regimes or ourselves”

Jan Koum, founder of WhatsApp

All messages and voice calls that pass over WhatsApp will be automatically encrypted. This was announced with a post on Facebook Jan Koum, founder of the proprietary platform of the social network of Zuckerberg, in order to ensure greater protection for its one billion users worldwide. The move comes in the middle of Apple-FBI standoff for accessing data from the San Bernardino iPhone killer, and in the wake of what has already make chat services like Telegram.

On the company’s blog there is also a reference to the Apple-FBI each other: “We recognize the important work of the police in keeping people safe,” writes Whatsapp, “but efforts to weaken encryption of data subject information of persons to the abuse of cyber criminals, hackers and rogue states. ”

“For two years we work to give people a better security for their conversations on WhatsApp,” writes Koum on Facebook. “I am proud that our team has achieved this: from now on, every message, photos, videos, files and voice message sent will be encrypted by default if the sender and the recipient will be using both the latest version of our application. Even the group chat and voice calls will be encrypted. ”

“The people deserve security,” emphasizes Koum, it is the security that “allows us to connect with those we love.” “It allows us to communicate sensitive information with colleagues, friends or others.” “We are happy to do our part in keeping people’s information out of the reach of hackers and cyber criminals.” No, said the company’s blog, can enter the messages sent, “not even repressive regimes or ourselves.”
