Security and privacy recommendations

This project is aiming to create the most secure and private chat app. It will heavily depend on how you use it. Here are some reccomended security optimizations/advice to keep your data secure and private:

  • Use a self-hosted instance of the app.
  • Use a VPN to protect your data from being intercepted.
  • Only connect to trusted peers.
  • Validate public key hashes.
  • You and your peer should use a secure device/os/browser with the latest updates.
  • Use general security practices like not sharing sensitive information, not clicking on suspicious links, etc.
