Amnesichat
A small, simple and secure messenger
Description:
Amnesichat offers several key benefits, particularly in enhancing user privacy and security. By not retaining conversation histories or user data, it ensures that sensitive information shared during discussions remains confidential and is not accessible after the chat ends. This ephemeral nature fosters a safer environment for users to express their thoughts without fear of surveillance or data misuse.
Features:
-
Client-side quantum-resistant E2E message encryption
-
Forward and backward secrecy
-
Server runs even on cheapest hardware
-
Each message is stored encrypted in server's RAM and wiped after 24 hours
-
Docker support
-
Built in Rust
Technical details:
- Amnesichat Protocol for end-to-end encryption
- Stores identity keys in local storage encrypted with ChaCha20-Poly1305 and Argon2id with an user specified password
Amnesichat Protocol:
- EdDSA and Dilithium5 for authentication, ECDH and Kyber1024 for key exchange, encryption using ChaCha20-Poly1305
