CryptoMessage is a tool to send encrypted email messages across the internet so that you can communicate with other people in secrecy.

How does it work?

Use the Encryption tool to send an encrypted message. The message recipient will receive and email with the encrypted data and a url to the Decryption tool. Using a previously agreed upon key between the sender and the recipient, the recipient can retrieve the original message.

We suggest using a free email service such as gmail or hotmail for the recipient email address. From time to time emails from cryptomessage.com get caught in spam filters, and these free providers generally allow you to modify your filters to allow your message to get through.

Why should I encrypt my email?

Email systems are, by nature, insecure. When you send an email, it can pass through many networks before reaching the target mailbox. The mail must be stored somewhere, and if you use a free email provider, your email is sitting on a remote server that you have no control over. Anyone who does have access to that server can read your private conversations. Lastly, most email is protected by a password that can easily be cracked with your computer at home. CryptoMessage removes the ability for an unauthorized person from read your personal email.

Today, we have no way to determine who is reading our email. Hopefully, by now you realize how incredibly easy it is for someone to eavesdrop on your email account. In fact, some countries are making it legal to not only intercept your email, but to store and analyze your conversations with other people. You might be saying 'I don't need encryption because I'm not doing anything illegal' or 'Encryption is for spy stuff anyway'. How many times have you emailed yourself a login and password so you don't forget it? How comfortable are you with the fact that anyone can see everything in your inbox at anytime as if you published it on the internet? With CryptoMessage, those private emails look like jumbled text to any eavesdropper so you can rest assured that your messages are, in fact, private.

A better question is why shouldn't you encrypt your email?

How do I get a key?

You can either make up a key that is easy to remember between you and the recipient, or you can use the key generator to create a random key for you. Either way, keep in mind that the same key must be used by both encryption and decryption, so the sender and recepient need to exchange a key prior to decryption.

Is it secure?

CryptoMessage is secure for most applications where two people would like to communicate in secret. This system allows for e-mail transmission of messages that can be retrieved at any time without the contents of the message getting compromised by insecure e-mail systems.
