128-bit encryption for text messages
Brighton-based internet provision and software development company, Fair Internet, has launched a new mobile-to-mobile solution for sending and receiving secure SMS text messages, called Kryptext.
Launched last month, the device has already attracted the interest of individuals and companies alike from Italy, Russia and the Netherlands. According to Bee Ebéné, MD of Fair Internet, the new device appeals to lovers, bankers, and anyone who feels no third party should be able to read their messages.
She says: “The fact that we are being watched constantly wherever we are, and that telecoms companies can look at our messages if they want to, is not something that people are too happy with.”
