Since yesterday that any Portuguese can download a new generation of apps to ensure communications encryption of voice, video or text between users of 79 countries. The solution is known by the name of the company that created: Silent Circle. In Play or in the App Store it is possible to discover three apps associated with Silent Circle: an app that specializes in encryption of voice communications and vídeochamadas; a second for text messages; and finally, a third that guarantees the confidentiality of the phone numbers registered on your mobile phone.
The Silent Circle, which began by winning name after collaborating with the development of the famous Geeksphone Blackphone, is committed to also gain position on encryption apps that take advantage of communications over IP. What, besides the anti-escutas technology, reduces costs associated with roaming between different countries covered by these apps.
Reuters reveals that encrypted charges by Silent Circle range from $ 12.95 (approx. 9.4 euros) for 100-minute monthly conversation and 39.95 (about 29.3 euros) for 1,000 minutes of talk time per month. Much of Europe, North and South America and several countries in Asia are covered by this app that assigns a specific number for secure communications between members of the service.
The new apps are not confined to mobile phones: can also be used to ensure the confidentiality of communications made with fixed networks, or even voice services over IP (VoIP) used in personal computers. The app is also capable of sending encrypted files.
In the voice, the encryption is guaranteed through a protocol known as ZPRT that applies the cipher during the connection and delete the keys that ensure the encryption when the call ends. In messaging services, is the Silent Circle protocol Instant Messaging Protocol (SCIMP) managing secret keys to ensure that communications are not intercetadas.
The Silent Circle ensures that eliminates all customer data out of seven days. The Company undertakes to announce every six months how many requests for information were requested by various authorities where the app is available.
The Silent Circle ensures that the three apps have no backdoors, but admit that no system is infallible: in addition to admit that the system could allow, through sophisticated mechanisms, identification of IP numbers used in communications, the brand anti-escutas reiterates that it cannot be counted for operating systems in which the app is used (iOS and Android).
