Whether you\u2019re talking about end-to-end encrypted messaging, email, file storage, or anything else, this ensures that no one in the middle can see your private data.<\/p>\n<p>In other words: If a chat <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a> offers end-to-end encryption, for example, only you and the person you\u2019re chatting with will be able to read the contents of your messages. In this scenario, not even the company operating the chat app can see what you\u2019re saying.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Encryption_Basics\"><\/span>Encryption Basics<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>First, let\u2019s start with the basics of encryption. Encryption is a way of scrambling (encrypting) data so that it can\u2019t be read by everyone. Only the people who can unscramble (decrypt) the information can see its contents. If someone doesn\u2019t have the decryption key, they won\u2019t be able to unscramble the data and view the information.<\/p>\n<p>(This is how it\u2019s supposed to work, of course. Some encryption systems have security flaws and other weaknesses.)<\/p>\n<p>Your devices are using various forms of encryption all the time. For example, when you access your online banking website\u2014or any website using HTTPS, which is most websites these days\u2014the communications between you and that website are encrypted so that your network operator, internet service provider, and anyone else snooping on your traffic can\u2019t see your banking password and financial details.<\/p>\n<p>Wi-Fi uses encryption, too. That\u2019s why your neighbors can\u2019t see everything you\u2019re doing on your Wi-Fi network\u2014assuming that you use a modern Wi-Fi security standard that hasn\u2019t been cracked, anyway.<\/p>\n<p>Encryption is also used to secure your data. Modern devices like iPhones, Android phones, iPads, Macs, Chromebooks, and Linux systems (but not all Windows PCs) store their data on your local devices in encrypted form. It\u2019s decrypted after you sign in with your PIN or password.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><em>Why Does Microsoft Charge $100 for Encryption When Everyone Else Gives It Away?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Encryption_%E2%80%9Cin_Transit%E2%80%9D_and_%E2%80%9Cat_Rest%E2%80%9D_Who_Holds_the_Keys\"><\/span>Encryption \u201cin Transit\u201d and \u201cat Rest\u201d: Who Holds the Keys?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>So encryption is everywhere, and that\u2019s great. But when you\u2019re talking about communicating privately or storing data securely, the question is: Who holds the keys?<\/p>\n<p>For example, let\u2019s think about your Google account. Is your Google data\u2014your Gmail emails, Google Calendar events, Google Drive files, search history, and other data\u2014secured with encryption?<\/p>\n<p>Well, yes. In some ways.<\/p>\n<p>Google uses encryption to secure data \u201cin transit.\u201d When you access your Gmail account, for example, Google connects via secure HTTPS. This ensures that no one else can snoop on the communication going on between your device and Google\u2019s servers. Your internet service provider, network operator, people within range of your Wi-Fi network, and any other devices between you and Google\u2019s servers can\u2019t see the contents of your emails or intercept your Google account password.<\/p>\n<p>Google also uses encryption to secure data \u201cat rest.\u201d Before the data is saved to disk on Google\u2019s servers, it is encrypted. Even if someone pulls off a heist, sneaking into Google\u2019s data center and stealing some hard drives, they wouldn\u2019t be able to read the data on those drives.<\/p>\n<p>Both encryption in transit and at rest are important, of course. They\u2019re good for security and privacy. It\u2019s much better than sending and storing the data unencrypted!<\/p>\n<p>But here\u2019s the question: Who holds the key that can decrypt this data? The answer is Google. Google holds the keys.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_It_Matters_Who_Holds_the_Keys\"><\/span>Why It Matters Who Holds the Keys<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-711933 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/google.jpg\" alt=\"The Googleplex in Mountain View, California.\" width=\"650\" height=\"434\" data-crediturl=\"https:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/image-photo\/20161226-googleplex-google-headquarters-mountain-view-552493561\" data-credittext=\"achinthamb\/Shutterstock.com\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/image-photo\/20161226-googleplex-google-headquarters-mountain-view-552493561\">achinthamb\/Shutterstock.com<\/a><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Since Google holds the keys, this\u00a0means that Google is capable of seeing your data\u2014emails, documents, files, calendar events, and everything else.<\/p>\n<p>If a rogue Google employee wanted to snoop on your data\u2014and yes, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/2010\/09\/google-spy\/\">it\u2019s happened<\/a>\u2014encryption wouldn\u2019t stop them.<\/p>\n<p>If a hacker somehow compromised Google\u2019s systems and private keys (admittedly a tall order), they would be able to read everyone\u2019s data.<\/p>\n<p>If Google was required to turn over data to a government, Google would be able to access your data and hand it over.<\/p>\n<p>Other systems may protect your data, of course. Google says that it has implemented better protections against rogue engineers accessing data. Google is clearly very serious about keeping its systems secure from hackers. Google has even been <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/uk-hongkong-google-data\/google-stops-responding-directly-to-data-requests-from-hong-kong-government-idUKKCN25A0J6\/\">pushing back on data requests in Hong Kong<\/a>, for example.<\/p>\n<p>So yes, those systems may protect your data. But that\u2019s not\u00a0<em>encryption<\/em> protecting your data from Google. It\u2019s just Google\u2019s policies protecting your data.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t get the impression that this is all about Google. It\u2019s not\u2014not at all. Even Apple, so beloved for its privacy stances, does not end-to-end encrypt iCloud backups. In other words: Apple keeps keys that it can use to decrypt everything you upload in an iCloud backup.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_End-to-End_Encryption_Works\"><\/span>How End-to-End Encryption Works<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Now, let\u2019s talk chat apps. For example: <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a> Messenger. When you contact someone on Facebook Messenger, the messages are encrypted in transit between you and Facebook, and between Facebook and the other person. The stored message log is encrypted at rest by Facebook before it\u2019s stored on Facebook\u2019s servers.<\/p>\n<p>But Facebook has a key. Facebook itself can see the contents of your messages.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-711934 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/facebook.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"488\" data-crediturl=\"https:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/image-photo\/28th-january-2019-dublin-ireland-facebooks-1409574566\" data-credittext=\"Derick Hudson\/Shutterstock.com\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/image-photo\/28th-january-2019-dublin-ireland-facebooks-1409574566\">Derick Hudson\/Shutterstock.com<\/a><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The solution is end-to-end encryption. With end-to-end encryption, the provider in the middle\u2014whoever you replace Google or Facebook with, in these examples\u2014will not be able to see the contents of your messages. They do not hold a key that unlocks your private data. Only you and the person you\u2019re communicating with hold the key to access that data.<\/p>\n<p>Your messages are truly private, and only you and the people you\u2019re talking to can see them\u2014not the company in the middle.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_It_Matters\"><\/span>Why It Matters<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>End-to-end encryption offers much more privacy. For example, when you have a conversation over an end-to-end encrypted chat service like Signal, you know that only you and the person you\u2019re talking to can view the contents of your communications.<\/p>\n<p>However, when you have a conversation over a messaging app that isn\u2019t end-to-end encrypted\u2014like Facebook Messenger\u2014you know that the company sitting in the middle of the conversation can see the contents of your communications.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not just about chat apps. For example, email can be end-to-end encrypted, but it requires configuring PGP encryption or using a service with that built in, like ProtonMail. Very few people use end-to-end encrypted email.<\/p>\n<p>End-to-end encryption gives you confidence when communicating about and storing sensitive information, whether it\u2019s financial details, medical conditions, business documents, legal proceedings, or just intimate personal conversations you don\u2019t want anyone else having access to.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"End-to-End_Encryption_Isnt_Just_About_Communications\"><\/span>End-to-End Encryption Isn\u2019t Just About Communications<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>End-to-end encryption was traditionally a term used to describe secure communications between different people. However, the term is also commonly applied to other services where only you hold the key that can decrypt your data.<\/p>\n<p>For example, password managers like <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/1password.com\/\">1Password<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/bitwarden.com\/\">BitWarden<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lastpass.com\/\">LastPass<\/a>, and <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.tkqlhce.com\/click-3607085-12177397-1428426211000?sid=ct711656\">Dashlane<\/a> are end-to-end encrypted. The company can\u2019t rummage through your password vault\u2014your passwords are secured with a secret only you know.<\/p>\n<p>In a sense, this is arguably \u201cend-to-end\u201d encryption\u2014except that you\u2019re on both ends. No one else\u2014not even the company that makes the password manager\u2014holds a key that lets them decrypt your private data. You can use the password manager without giving the password manager company\u2019s employees access to all your online banking passwords.<\/p>\n<p>Another good example: If a file storage service is end-to-end encrypted, that means that the file storage provider can\u2019t see the contents of your files. If you want to store or sync sensitive files with a cloud service\u2014for example, tax returns that have your social security number and other sensitive details\u2014encrypted file storage services are a more secure way to do that than just dumping them in a traditional cloud storage service like Dropbox, Google Drive, or Microsoft OneDrive.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"One_Downside_Dont_Forget_Your_Password\"><\/span>One Downside: Don\u2019t Forget Your Password!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There\u2019s one big downside with end-to-end encryption for the average person: If you lose your decryption key, you lose access to your data. Some services may offer recovery keys that you can store, but if you forget your password and lose those recovery keys, you can no longer decrypt your data.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s one big reason that companies like Apple, for example, might not want to end-to-end encrypt iCloud backups. Since Apple holds the encryption key, it can let you reset your password and give you access to your data again. This is a consequence of the fact that Apple holds the encryption key and can, from a technical perspective, do whatever it likes with your data. If Apple didn\u2019t hold the encryption key for you, you wouldn\u2019t be able to recover your data.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine if, every time someone forgets a password to one of their accounts, their data in that account would be wiped out and become inaccessible. Forget your Gmail password? Google would have to erase all your Gmails to give you your account back. That\u2019s what would happen if end-to-end encryption was used everywhere.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Examples_of_Services_That_Are_End-to-End_Encrypted\"><\/span>Examples of Services That Are End-to-End Encrypted<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-708951 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/signal-apps.png\" alt=\"Signal apps showing the conversation list and conversation.\" width=\"650\" height=\"300\" data-crediturl=\"https:\/\/signal.org\/en\/\" data-credittext=\"Signal\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/signal.org\/en\/\">Signal<\/a><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Here are some basic communication services that offer end-to-end encryption.

Apple iMessage offers end-to-end encryption, but Apple gets a copy of your messages with the default iCloud backup settings. WhatsApp says that every conversation is end-to-end encrypted, but it does <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/whatsapp-facebook-data-share-notification\/\">share a lot of data with Facebook<\/a>. Some other apps offer end-to-end encryption as an optional feature that you have to enable manually, including Telegram and Facebook Messenger.<\/p>\n<p>For end-to-end encrypted email, you can use PGP\u2014however, it\u2019s complicated to set up. Thunderbird now has integrated PGP support. There are encrypted email services like <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/protonmail.com\/\">ProtonMail<\/a> and <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/tutanota.com\/\">Tutanota<\/a> that store your emails on their servers with encryption and make it possible to more easily send encrypted emails. For example, if one ProtonMail user emails another ProtonMail user, the message is automatically sent encrypted so that no one else can see its contents. However, if a ProtonMail user emails someone using a different service, they\u2019ll need to set up PGP to use encryption. (Note that encrypted email doesn\u2019t encrypt everything: While the message body is encrypted, for example, subject lines aren\u2019t.)<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><em>What Is Signal, and Why Is Everyone Using It?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p>End-to-end encryption is important.
