Now a days, there is no assurance that our online communications are not being monitored by prying eyes. Every day someone might be watching us about what we’re talking with others, what we’re going to do next, and furthermore our company financial discussions, future growth planning discussions etc. So what are you going to do to communicate securely? Well, here comes ChatCrypt.

The only participants that are using the same password and chat room can read each other messages. The one who don’t know the password, can’t view the messages.
