Kontact App

KONTACT Chat is the ultimate end-to-end encrypted secure messaging app. It allows users to send peer-to-peer messages, join group chats, and make unlimited voice calls.

The application ensures no data is stored on our KONTACT Clouds and simply passes through, acting only as facilitators of the communication.


KONTACT VAULT

Vault keeps your content safe and secure. The encrypted file storage uses XTS encryption with state-of-the-art SHA hashing to encapsulate all stored data and protect it within an isolated container. When users want to access the stored information, they first need to decrypt the database on their KONTACT Phone Vault through the password or PIN authentication. The storage decrypts its contents only when the user is actively using the app. In all other instances, it remains locked to any attacker, malware, or spyware trying to access the sensitive information. When users exit the application, it automatically encrypts all data to prevent intrusion and data mining.

KONTACT Vault is integrated with our encrypted KONTACT Chat application, allowing cross access to stored files between the two Apps.

KONTACT Vault allows users to:

  • Store multiple file formats including images, audio, and video.
  • Save messages and entire conversations as encrypted notes
  • Create encrypted notes

ZERO-TRACE CHAT

Most chat applications do not use secured traffic encryption: all data used to communicate and share with peers is easily accessible by:

  • Mobile operators, through whom the connection is established;
  • Internet providers and networks, transmit traffic to applications’ servers;
  • App developers, applications use servers to send the information;
  • App databases, that do not secure but store sensitive data;
  • Entities infiltrating access to the databases mentioned above that store information.


This means data is also vulnerable to third-party service providers.

Should any third-party systems mentioned above be breached to leverage information, the communication and data is exposed.

Mobile security providers may also store encrypted copies of conversations.

This means if an attacker obtains the public cryptographic key, sensitive information could be accessed and read.

To eliminate vulnerabilities and establish zero third-party trust, our peer-to-peer communication system never stores information.

Messages sent on KONTACT App will not leave the sender’s device unless the intended recipient’s device is online to instantly receive the message.

In addition, screen shots are disabled to ensure that messages are not saved without the knowledge of all users in a chat.


OUR PEER-TO-PEER STRUCTURE GUARANTEES DATA TRANSFER LEAVES NO TRACES ACROSS THE NETWORK OR ON OUR KONTACT CLOUDS.

P2P CHAT

Our OTR-encrypted peer-to-peer chats use our KONTACT Clouds to confirm both devices are online to exchange information with zero trace.

When the sender sends a message, the KONTACT Clouds check if the recipient is online. If they are not, the message is not sent and remains on the SENDER’S device until both peers are online. All communication-related information is encrypted and stored only on the user device within a password-protected encrypted database.
