ELEMENT ENCRYPTED MESSAGING
Element
Send messages, share files, use integrated videoconferencing, and own all your data under the protection of Matrix and Fognigma encryption.
End-to-end Encryption
Element uses a per-user, per-device encryption standard established with Matrix, an open network for decentralized communication that incorporates several layers of encryption methodologies and keys, including a one designed for group message encryption.
Anonymity
To provide access to the Element server, Fognigma admins can generate a unique Portal Proxy for each user that anonymizes the path to the server within commercial web traffic.
Incorporated Videoconferencing
Element allows users to create videoconferences within the application, complete with screensharing, chat features, password protection, and more.
BYOD
Element works with smartphones, tablets, and desktops, and every device is registered separately and encrypted with a unique set of keys.
Effortlessly Collaborate with Encrypted Messages, Files, and Videoconferences
Element is an additional encrypted team chat and file sharing capability available for Fognigma users that uses the Matrix encryption standard. This standard uses multiple layers of encryption methodologies and keys, as well as cross-signed verification to ease the authentication process and protect against imposters and man-in-the-middle attacks by allowing users to track the devices in a conversation and revoke trust in the event a device appears compromised.
ELEMENT IN ACTION
Scenario
An organization requires a solution to allow their users on the ground in contested space in different locations to communicate and collaborate without revealing relationships between users and the server or the network and server locations. Users need text, voice, and file sharing capabilities accessible from desktop and mobile devices, without requiring any specialized infrastructure.
From the Fognigma interface, the administrator deploys an Element server in a mission network, and Fognigma automatically generates a unique Portal Proxy for each user to enter in their device to connect them to the server.
After the Element server is deployed, users download the application, enter the Portal Proxy URL to connect to the server, and register their mobile phones and desktops, preventing their accounts from being accessed from unapproved devices.
Users create teams and public and private channels to organize mission communications, share files and messages, and use secure videoconferencing – all in one place, from any device.
