Verified

All messages encrypted with 256-bit AES in Galois/Counter mode with authenticated encryption to prevent tampering.

Passwords hardened with PBKDF2-SHA256 using 100,000 iterations before any key material is derived.
Active
Self-Destruct Messages

Active
AI Content Moderation
Llama Guard model runs at the edge to detect harmful content before it propagates, with zero human review of private messages.
Active
Zero-Knowledge Admin
Admins manage the platform without access to message content. All admin actions logged to an immutable audit trail.
