Signal is generally regarded as one of the most trusted and secure forms of communication
Under U.S. law, it can be a crime to mishandle, misuse or abuse classified information, though it is unclear whether those provisions might have been violated in this case.Signal is a secure messaging service that uses end-to-end encryption, meaning the service provider cannot access and read private conversations and calls from users on its app, therefore guaranteeing its users’ privacy.
The only user data it stores on its servers are phone numbers, the date a user joined the service, and the last login information. Signal also gives users the possibility to hide their phone number from others and use an additional safety number to verify the safety of their messages, it adds. Signal is not tied to any major tech companies and will never be acquired by one, it says on its website.Widely used by privacy advocates and political activists, Signal has gone from an exotic messaging app used by dissidents to a whisper network for journalists and media, to a messaging tool for government agencies and organizations.
