**[Session](https://getsession.org)** | Session is a fork of Signal, however unlike Signal it does not require a mobile number (or any other personal data) to register, instead each user is identified by a public key. It is also decentralized, with servers being run by the community though [Loki Net](https://loki.network), messages are encrypted and routed through several of these nodes. All communications are E2E encrypted, and there is no meta data.
|
||||
**[Silence](https://silence.im/)** | If you're restricted to only sending SMS/MMS, then Silence makes it easy to encrypt messages between 2 devices. This is important since traditional text messaging is inherently insecure. It's easy-to-use, reliable and secure - but has fallen in popularity, now that internet-based messaging is often faster and more flexible
|
||||
**[Off-The-Record](https://otr.cypherpunks.ca/)** | Off-the-Record (OTR) Messaging allows you to have private conversations over instant messaging/ [XMPP](https://xmpp.org). It has fallen in popularity in recent years, in favor for simpler, mobile-based messaging apps, but still widely used and secure. It provides: Encryption (so no one else can read your messages), Authentication (assurance that the correspondent is who you think they are), Deniability (After a conversation, it cannot be proved you took part), Perfect Forwards Secrecy (if your keys are compromised, no previous messages can be decrypted). The easiest way to use OTR, is with a [plugin](https://otr.cypherpunks.ca/software.php) for your IM client
|
||||
**[OpenPGP](https://www.openpgp.org/)** | Provides cryptographic privacy and authentication, PGP is used to encrypt messages sent over existing chat networks (such as email or message boards). Slightly harder to use (than IM apps), slower, but still widely used. Using [GnuPG](https://gnupg.org/download/index.html), encrypts messages following the OpenPGP standard, defined by the IETF, proposed in [RFC 4880](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4880) (originally derived from the PGP software, created by Phil Zimmermann, now owned by [Symantec](https://www.symantec.com/products/encryption)). <br>**Note/ Issues with PGP** PGP is [not easy](https://restoreprivacy.com/let-pgp-die/) to use for beginners, and could lead to human error/ mistakes being made, which would be overall much worse than if an alternate, simpler system was used. Do not use [32-bit key IDs](https://evil32.com/) - they are too short to be secure. There have also been vulnerabilities found in the OpenPGP and S/MIME, defined in [EFAIL](https://efail.de/), so although it still considered secure for general purpose use, it may be better to use an encrypted messaging or email app instea - especially for sensitive communications.

Other private, encrypted and open source messaging apps include: [Surespot](https://www.surespot.me), [Chat Secure](https://chatsecure.org/) (iOS only) and [Status](https://status.im/).

#### Word of Warning
|
||||
Many messaging apps claim to be secure, but if they are not open source, then this cannot be verified - and they **should not be trusted**. This applies to [Telegram](https://telegram.org), [Threema](https://threema.ch), [Cypher](https://www.goldenfrog.com/cyphr), [Wickr](https://wickr.com/), [Silent Phone](https://www.silentcircle.com/products-and-solutions/silent-phone/) and [Viber](https://www.viber.com/), to name a few - these apps should not be used to communicate any sensitive data. [Wire](https://wire.com/) has also been removed, due to a [recent acquisition](https://blog.privacytools.io/delisting-wire/)

**Beta Mail Providers**
|
||||
- **[CriptText](https://www.criptext.com/)** - CriptText is another option - it's encrypted, free and open source, but works a little differently from convectional mail. There is no cloud storage, and all email is instead stored on your devices. This greatly improves security - however you must be signed into the app (either on desktop or mobile) in order to receive mail. If you are not signed in, then mail sent to you will be permanently lost. For mobile users, your device can be offline or in airplane mode for up to 30 days before mail becomes discarded. The client apps are very good, email is synced seamless between devices, and you can enable automated and encrypted backups. Since your email is stored on your device, they are able to work offline - due to this, there is no web client. Encryption is done with the [Signal protocol](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_Protocol) (rather than PGP), and there are a bunch of really neat features that you can use while communicating to other Criptext users.
|
||||
Criptext is still in beta, but with an extremely smooth user experience, and no noticeable usability bugs.
