Bitcoin Forum

Hello,

We are developers of SecureChat for Skype application.

We offer to community forum members of Bitcointalk free activation keys as a giveaway of SecureChat in this forum thread.

The time period of this giveaway will be decided at a later time.

In order to claim your free activation key post in this thread that you want one and it will be sent to you by a personal message.


SecureChat is add-on for Skype which offers encrypted secure chat by RSA private public key encryption similar to PGP.
Our application is officially approved by Microsoft and Skype and it’s listed on Skype site:

http://shop.skype.com/apps/Business/SecureChat.html

http://skypesecurechat.com/          ( We accept Bitcoins as well )

The idea of the application is to have absolutely private chat conversation ( via Skype ) and no one could spy and tap you even the government.


Thank you and have a nice day.

SecureChat Team.

Nice!

I want one! Thanks!

I'd like one too aswell for testing the service :)

I'd appreciate one as well :).

For me also please :) Sounds really interesting - Would be awesome if Android is also available

I presume you do not disclose your source code (if one needs activation keys)?  So how do we know your crypto is actually doing what it should in a safe way?

May I have one or two? I have a friend that would really like to try it as well. Thank you!

Application connects to internet only once , due to activation process and it never uses internet again.
Encryption in it is quite transparent you could easily see the encrypted flow in Skype's chat windows.
No disk activity at all nothing is saved and backdoored.
Cryptographic protocol is standard RSA 2048. All claimed keys were sent.
Thank you for your interest!

That doesn't prove you don't have a backdoor or is vulnerable to side channel attacks.

If this is not open source, not interested.

^ What he said! Also: I thought it would be mandatory to have an NSA-compliant interface  :D

Uhm?  ??? Just to be exact - are you referring to the giveaway itself or the validity of the keys?

Exactly.

Why not simply go for free and open protocols and implementations like Jitsi (https://jitsi.org/) and ZRTP?  In case of this Skype plug-in, both sides need to install it anyway for end-to-end encryption to work.  Then just use Jitsi on both sides. ;)  (Well ok, I admit it is not quite trivial to get it work.  But it can be done, and if you need/want the security, it's the only way to set up an open system.  In fact, isn't Skype itself already an encrypted but proprietary system?  So what's the point in switching to another proprietary provider which you have to trust?)

Once activated its lifetime licensed. You can keep backup of your Key.sk file wich is your license for current pc configuration.



The structure and encryption of the Skype network allows 'man in the middle attack'
to be made and be possible only if it's done by the owners of the Skype network
or someone authorized by them.
If you accidently forget Skype signed in on
some of your home or work computers and you are chatting by other pc, so everyone who
has access to your computer could just look at your chat sessions, while you chat
to someone else.
Securechat even helps against hackers, who would steal your Skype password and they could do
the same all the time, without you even suspecting this could be happening.

If this is not open source it is not secure. I'm sorry, but please open source.

I would recommend Pidgin with the OTR (Off The Record) plugin.

It is open source and *free of charge* and can run over several different IM protocols.

Anything that has been endorsed by a PRISM aiding company like MS should not be trusted IMO.

Its true and we do agree but the key thing in our case is the fact that Microsoft has no power and capability to decrypt the gibberish which is flowing
through its network when it's RSA encrypted and we are to be honest afraid Microsoft will cease our software at some point in the future, but for now everything is quiet.

Then please give me the link to the source code so I can check it for myself (as Pidgin with OTC does).

If you can't do this then obviously you cannot be trusted.

Perfectly agreed here.  Pidgin with OTR works very well (and is easy to set up!) for secure chats, which even have forward-secrecy and deniability (with PGP doesn't have for instance).

We would but to a trustworthy company which won't spill our source all over the internet.

Promotion goes nicely all have taken activation keys so far.

You clearly don't get the point - if I can't build the software *from* the source code *myself* then how could I be sure any executable that you provide is actually using the same source code (so *seeing* the source code is not enough).

There is a reason why open source is the preferred approach to security - it does not require trust.
