Alexey Raevsky, CEO of Zecurion, a company developing systems for protecting against information leaks, said:
According to Raevsky, the most popularMessengers that claim end-to-end encryption of messages are secure and can be used to transmit sensitive information. These are WhatsApp, Telegram and Signal. At the same time, the expert emphasized that if we are talking about something illegal, then it is quite possible that the intelligence services will gain access to the transfer of information.
“In the process of transmission, intercept information inmessengers is almost impossible, but getting access to the storage location, device or computer on which all this is located is more realistic. This does not depend on the security of the messenger, but on how the person to whom you send information relates to their security. You can hack, steal, use social engineering methods. There are many options,” explained Alexey Raevsky.
