Secure Message

What is a "Secure Message"?

A secure message is a text message that can be sent and received by using PrivateGSM. Secure Message uses the same communication infrastructure of the Secure Voice communication to exchange data: 

...

Delivery is performed by SIP over TLS protocol, so as you can see the whole end-to-end path is encrypted and as the message is stored after a local encryption on the server, then there's (almost) no way of deciphering it.

 

Warning

Secure Message System need specific abilitation. If the service is not available on your device please contact your support team to check it's enabled on your account.
