The most secure app is Biocoded: https://biocoded.com/home https://biocoded.com/home. The reason we claim it is the most secure is:
- Encrypted local on-device storage. We have an always-on mechanism and never store the entire local storage decryption key on the device. It's half on the device and half on the server. In case of lost or stolen device, all data is still safe. In fact you can effectively "wipe" your biocoded app data even if the device is offline by deleting the server part of the decryption key.
- We allow private servers (not for free).
- Double ratchet algorithm for communication.
- Foxboron 10y agoWhere is the source code?
- ChoGGi 10y ago"Biocoded source code, security protocols and implementations are audited by independent security agencies. Open source is not a guarantee or even an indicator of security. For sensitive governmental and corporate use, open source solutions are often dismissed outright." https://biocoded.com/faq#0 https://biocoded.com/faq#0
- Foxboron 10y agoSo pretty bad for any privacy aware consumer. Got it!
- huhtenberg 10y ago> Open source is not a guarantee or even an indicator of security. This is true. > For sensitive governmental and corporate use, open source solutions are often dismissed outright." But this is a false argument. Open source solutions aren't dismissed because they are open source per se, but because they generally lack predictable longer-term support.
- biokoda 10y ago> But this is a false argument. Not for governments. Some are pragmatic, others will not even consider it if open source.
- huhtenberg 10y agoGot an example? That is, of a government entity that explicitly rejects software products made by recognized (for-profit) companies because it's an open source.
- ChoGGi 10y agoJust quoting it for Foxboron, never said I agree with it.
