Video of Whatsapp describing Whatsapp strengthens encryption in wake of iPhone case
Facebook on Tuesday announced it had bolstered the default encryption settings for the more than one billion users of its popular Whatsapp messaging service so that all messages will now be accessible only to the sender and recipient.
The update arrives amid a heightened international debate over how much access law enforcement should have to digital communications and follows a high-profile showdown between Apple and the FBI over an encrypted iPhone linked to one of the San Bernardino shooters.
WhatsApp began working on developing full end-to-end encryption on its messages about two years ago with the help of software provided by Open Whisper Systems, a security nonprofit. The communications app began offering it by default on text-only messages between two users in 2015, but group messages and those containing rich media such as photos and videos were not fully encrypted.
As of Tuesday the entirety of Whatsapp messages will be supported by end-to-end encryption, the company said, meaning the company will not have any capability to read customers’ messages even if approached by law enforcement.
