Security

Security that feels invisible.

Watfoe uses industry‑standard encryption so only you and your contacts can read messages.

End-to-end encryption keeps chats private.
Keys rotate often to protect past messages.
Verification steps help prevent impersonation.

X3DH

X3DH starts a secure session even when someone is offline by using identity keys and one‑time prekeys.

Double Ratchet

Double Ratchet updates encryption keys after every message, keeping past chats safe if a device is compromised later.

What this protects

  • Message content and attachments.
  • Past conversations, even after a breach.
  • Sessions that heal once an attacker is removed.

Threat model

We design for hostile networks, curious infrastructure, and temporary device compromise.

We can’t protect chats if a device stays fully compromised, so safety checks still matter.

This is a high-level overview. More details will be shared later.
