Encryption or in cryptography is the process of encoding messages or information in such a way that only authorized parties can read it. Data encryption is very important to people dealing with confidential files or information.
To make the confidential files or other information from leaking or viewed by unauthorized person, military personnel usually exchanging information in encrypted format.
Encrypting files using your personal computer is much easier using encrypting programs or applications. How about encrypting text messages, files, photos or videos from your mobile devices?
Last year a collection of approximately 500 private pictures of various celebrities, mostly women, and with many containing nudity, were hacked from cloud services and posted on the imageboard 4chan and later disseminated to other social networks. This could happen again anytime.
Good news, Kingmax, the world’s first vertically-integrated semiconductor company and GO-Trust, the innovator of the secure microSDs tied up to make Sycret Text.
Sycret Text consists of two components, Sycret Text Card and Sycret Text App for Android user. Sycret Text Card is a memory card with an embedded encryption engine and user flash memory. Sycret Text App is an Android Application downloadable in Google Play Store when Android smartphone user can exchange encrypted SMS Text messages with other Sycret Text users.
Here’s how Kingmax Sycret Text work.
Features of Sycret Text
- Security
