What is Signal and is it secure?

  • Signal is an end-to-end encrypted messaging app considered highly secure and has recently been targeted by hackers linked to Russia.

  • Signal is managed by an independent non-profit organization rather than a major tech company, unlike WhatsApp and Apple's iMessage.
  • Recent attacks on Signal involved phishing to gain account access and the app enhances privacy by hiding metadata such as delivery times and recipients.
