Authors- Vaibhav, Bhaskar Chauhan

Abstract- Chat applications have emerged as indispensable tools on smartphones, offering users the ability to exchange text messages, images, and files at no cost. However, ensuring the security of these communications is paramount. This paper proposes a secure chat application that implements End-to-End encryption, safeguarding private information exchanged between users and providing robust data protection. The application also addresses storage security concerns. By outlining a set of requirements for a secure chat application, this paper informs the design process. The proposed application is evaluated against these requirements and compared with existing popular alternatives to assess its security features. Furthermore, the application undergoes rigorous testing to validate its End-to-End security capabilities.
