Encrypted messaging is a way to protect the privacy of your conversations by scrambling the content so that only the intended recipient can read it. When you send a message, it is converted into a code that looks like gibberish to anyone who intercepts it. Only the person with the correct decryption key can turn it back into readable text. This ensures that messages remain confidential, safeguarding personal information from hackers, government surveillance, or prying eyes while they’re transmitted over the internet or through mobile networks. Popular apps that use encryption include WhatsApp and Signal.
