Own Your Data with
Private Encryption Keys

Messagenius operates a unique encryption key system. We hand over the encryption keys to you, and from then on, no one has access to your data except you.

As an extra layer of protection, we allow enterprises to have multiple holders of encryption keys. Splitting control minimizes the risk for data leak.

FULLY TRACKED & INDELIBLE

Black Box Chats

Know when, what, and to whom all the conversations have been sent within your enterprise. Messagenius Black Box Chats are always certified between sender and recipient. All messages are time stamped and come with a mandatory proof-of-receipt.

TEMPORARY & SELF-DESTRUCTING

Black Hole Chats

Protect your most sensitive data with Black Hole chats. Messagenius Black Hole conversations do not pass through any servers and leave no trace of their existence. Set up a timer, and once your message is open, the message always self-destructs and cannot be recalled from the server.

F.A.Q.s

How do encrypted calls work in Messagenius?

Step 1: Initiate a voice or video call from your device.

Step 2: Messagenius encrypts the call data using strong encryption algorithms, making it unreadable to anyone except the intended participants.

Step 3: The encrypted data is transmitted over the network, remaining secure in-transit.

Step 4: The call data is decrypted only on the recipient’s device, ensuring complete privacy.

Step 5: Any call logs or stored data are encrypted at-rest, ensuring they remain secure even if accessed later.

How can Messagenius customize encrypted messaging for your organization?

Messagenius offers flexible encryption options tailored to your organization’s specific security needs:

  • Custom Encryption Standards: Adjust encryption settings to meet industry-specific or organizational security requirements.
  • Role-Based Messaging Permissions: Restrict who can send or receive encrypted messages based on employee roles and departments.
  • Key Management Options: Customize how encryption keys are generated, stored, and managed within the organization.
  • Compliance Monitoring: Integrate encryption protocols with your organization’s compliance tools to ensure data protection regulations are met.
How does encrypted messaging work in Messagenius?
  • A user sends a message, which is encrypted on their device using strong encryption algorithms.
  • The encrypted message is transmitted through the organization’s internal network, remaining unreadable to anyone who intercepts it.
  • The message is decrypted only when it reaches the intended recipient’s device, ensuring complete privacy.
  • At no point can any unauthorized individual or third party access the content of the message, thanks to end-to-end encryption.
How does end-to-end encryption work in Messagenius?
  • A user sends a message, file, or initiates a call, and Messagenius encrypts the communication directly on the sender’s device.
  • The encrypted data is sent over the network to the intended recipient.
  • Only the recipient, with the corresponding decryption key stored on their device, can decrypt and access the communication.
  • Throughout the process, the encryption keys remain solely on the users’ devices, preventing any third party, including Messagenius, from accessing the content.
  • The communication is decrypted on the recipient’s device, where the message, file, or call can be accessed securely.
How does encryption in-transit and at-rest work in Messagenius?
  • When a message, file, or call is initiated, Messagenius uses TLS to encrypt the data before it leaves the sender’s device, ensuring encryption in-transit.
  • The encrypted data remains secure while it moves across networks and can only be decrypted by the intended recipient.
  • When data is stored on servers or devices, Messagenius applies AES-256 encryption to ensure encryption at-rest, protecting all stored messages, files, and logs.
  • Encryption keys are securely managed, rotated periodically, and separated from the stored data to prevent unauthorized access.
  • Full disk encryption is applied to physical devices for added protection against data theft or loss.
How does Messagenius encryption protect communication?
  • Messagenius applies encryption in-transit, ensuring that data is protected while it moves across networks.
  • All stored data is encrypted at-rest, safeguarding sensitive information from unauthorized access.
  • End-to-end encryption ensures that only the intended recipients can read messages or access call data.
  • Messagenius employs real-time encryption for voice and video calls to prevent unauthorized monitoring.
  • Encryption keys are securely managed, ensuring the integrity and security of all communications.
How to set up Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) in Messagenius? (For Admins only)

Step 1: Navigate to the security settings in the Messagenius dashboard.

Step 2: Choose the preferred method of 2FA (SMS, email, authenticator app, or biometric).

Step 3: Follow the prompts to configure your 2FA settings, including linking your phone number or email, or scanning a QR code for authenticator apps.

Step 4: Complete the setup by testing the 2FA method to ensure it works correctly.

Step 5: Save your settings, and 2FA will be enabled for your account.

Can messages be archived?

Yes. They are automatically archived, the retention of the messages is configurable by the client. Passengers can choose to save their individual chats. The cruise line or app operator can also archive all chats for history and security.

Can Messagenius provide a locally installable fallback system?

Messagenius provides a locally installable fallback system as long as there is a network connection between the dispersed locations. It can be done by installing a local server, with the local Wi-Fi. To guarantee the network across multiple dispersed locations, one of the locations will have to work as the main server. Alternatively, it is also possible to do that each location has its own server, and they are federated among each other.

Is Messagenius a 100% guarantee for no cyberattacks for my company?

No software can provide a guarantee against cyber attacks because the criminals targeting your company are beyond the control of the software provider. However, Messagenius gives you tools to detect and defeat common cyber attacks:
– Phishing scams form around 80% of all reported cyber attacks. These attacks begin with deception aimed at causing someone to reveal personal information that can be used to gain unlawful access to sensitive data. Messagenius helps prevent this by offering a secure environment where phishing is easier to recognize. Also, message information, such as sender, recipient, and network logs, make detection and neutralization much easier.

– Trojan attacks, where software is slipped into the system, usually by email, are the next most common form of attack and may be combined with a phishing scam. Messagenius offers active object scanning and a secure communications platform so your employees can easily recognize when someone is attempting to gain unlawful access or deliver a malicious payload.

– Hacking attacks are ‘classic’ cyber criminal behavior. Messagenius defeats these attacks by using on-premises and private cloud installation. This limits the attack surfaces available to hackers. Providing adequate security and protection for a limited number of attack surfaces is much simpler than trying to defend every device used by anyone in your organization.
So, while we cannot guarantee your organization will not be targeted by a cyber attack, Messagenius does offer a substantial set of tools and a working environment that is more secure than other communications options.
