Golden Frog Introduces Cyphr: Free Encrypted Messaging for Your Phone

What is cyphr about?

That should surely have got your taste buds going, but let’s slow down and take it from the top. So what exactly is Cyphr? This is an easy-to-use app for your phone, Android or iOS, which allows the users to send encrypted messages and photos to each other. The entire process is simple, pain-free, and costs nothing.

True peace of mind comes from you, the user, knowing that only you and the people you send messages to can see them. Golden Frog can’t see them, share them, they do not store them, and those pesky third parties cannot see them either. This means you have 100% privacy with your messages.

Everyone trusts the mailman

This sounds all well and good, but you may be wondering how it all works. Think of the process as being similar to sending a letter. Once you send a message, Cyphr will verify the message so the recipient knows it is not a fake; it then gets put into a secure envelope and locked so that no one else like third parties can see it. Following this, the envelope is delivered to your friend’s mailbox, where they have the only key able to open and read it.

Golden Frog uses its own servers based in Switzerland to transmit your messages. Due to the fact that the company uses its own servers, makes its own code and looks after its own network, you can be confident about your security. This works well with Golden Frog’s other privacy services, such as VyprVPN that encrypts your Internet connection at home or even out and about, or for file security with a free 10-50GB account with Dump Truck that comes with VyprVPN subscriptions! So give Cyphyr a try for yourself and say goodbye to your privacy woes!
