The Secret server handles encrypted messages with RSA and Base64 and works semi-online. Only minimal data is stored on decentralized servers; usernames are only kept on the official server. Private messages are deleted after the recipient views them, except for group messages which remain for all members. Friend requests are deleted after viewing. Server code is available for developers.
The Secret server is built with PHP and handles encrypted messages. It simulates the backend of the messenger and processes messages with high speed.
All messages and data are stored in a MySQL database. Messages are automatically deleted after being received by the final user to ensure privacy.
Using installer.php, you can set up the server on any hosting that supports PHP. Like WordPress, templates can be installed and the server becomes ready to receive and display messages.
Secret server is securely designed and all messages are encrypted in storage and transit. Only public keys are exchanged between sender and receiver to maximize security.
Messages are automatically removed from the database after being read by the final user to ensure no old messages remain on the server.
The server only exchanges public keys between sender and receiver. Private keys are never stored on the server to maintain full security.
