Signal on Swarm
- Signal, despite secure message content, exposes messaging activity metadata, posing risks for journalists and users due to central server reliance.
- Swarm introduces a new messaging model by storing encrypted messages anonymously across a decentralized network.
- Messages in Swarm are broken into indistinguishable chunks for secure, private communication without revealing metadata.
- Swarm's Trojan Chunks allow for asynchronous, real-time messaging without leakage of any metadata or identification.
- Trojan Chunks disguise private messages as regular network data, ensuring secure communication without visibility.
- Swarm uses decentralized storage and encryption protocols for forwarding secrecy, mutual authentication, and deniability.
- Swarm's Double Ratchet mode ensures encrypted messages with unique keys for forward and future secrecy.
- Swarm's decentralized outbox feeds enable posting and retrieval of encrypted messages with randomized indexing for privacy.
- Swarm's architecture combines cryptographic security with decentralized infrastructure for end-to-end encryption and leakage-proof messaging.
- This privacy-focused system allows for instant, censorship-resistant, and leak-proof messaging while preserving user anonymity.
