Open initiative for end-to-end security | |
End-to-end encryption protects against mass surveillance because it ensures that only the sender and recipient can read messages in plain text. Although there are a large number of encryption solutions, they have hardly been used so far. The main reason for this is that everyday use is too complicated for many people. Fraunhofer SIT has therefore started an initiative with Volksverschüsselung to establish the use of encryption technologies among the general public. | |

Offene Initiative für Ende-zu-Ende-Sicherheit | |
Ende-zu-Ende-Verschlüsselung schützt vor Massenüberwachung, denn sie stellt sicher, dass nur Sender und Empfänger Nachrichten im Klartext lesen können. Obwohl es eine Vielzahl von Verschlüsselungslösungen gibt, werden diese bislang kaum genutzt. Hauptgrund hierfür ist, dass die Anwendung im Alltag für viele Menschen zu kompliziert ist. Mit der Volksverschlüsselung hat Fraunhofer SIT deshalb eine Initiative gestartet, um den Einsatz von Verschlüsselungstechnologien in der breiten Bevölkerung zu etablieren. |
