Every day, a plethora of ones and zeros are generated from our smartphones which enable us to coordinate our actions and communicate our personal stories, life, and secrets with our friends and to share our success and stories across the world. Theses wonderful technologies are constantly greasing the wheels of our economy and society and therefore enable us to reinforce our prosperity and to boost our evolution.
When it comes to the real-world security of our body, cars, homes, and houses, we're obviously seeing the risks we can take by lacking some security points which is the main reason why we are generally making sure that our material goods are safe such as by locking our door or protecting our body.
When it comes to the real-world privacy of our personal lives and stories with our friends and family, we're also easily seeing the disadvantages we can have which also is the main reason why we're building houses with opaque walls and doors to our bathrooms.
Real-world security and privacy are so obvious that it is quite uncommon to take any special measures about it, most of cars, homes, and houses have a well enough default security level to not having the need to look for advanced solutions. But when it comes to our online security and privacy which has the same importance as our real-world security and privacy, customers and sellers both have a tendency to not estimate it properly and therefore to not have or provide a fully secure solution.
Consider a year's worth of communications, or maybe even a lifetime of communications, collectively, this tells a lot. In fact, it tells your preferences, relations, habits, secrets, where you have been, who you have met, etc. It tells even more about you that you could even know. But the scariest part about this is that our data now mostly lasts forever, in fact, your data can and will probably outlive you.
If we consider that most communication systems use very basic encryption algorithms which can quite easily be broken by actual technologies, it means that we've simply not the control over our daily communications. If we also think further and also take into consideration recent technological breakthroughs such as quantum computers which are now enough mature to grow fast in terms of computing power and accessibility, it is naive to think that our communications from now won't easily be readable by all organizations which have been able to store our so used communications.
Most highly secure communication systems such as Wire, Signal, Riot, Ring, XMPP, Telegram, Whatsapp, Wickr just offer an enough advanced privacy and security level for average communications but does not take post-quantum related risks into consideration and are therefore not designed and suitable for very high confidentiality levels communications which must to stay secure for many years especially concerning quantum computers related threats. Theses solutions are great but simply not designed for a future security while less used solutions which have a much higher security are often lacking accessibility and user experience.
