Coverme, an "agency heavy" the main privacy protection of IM production

.

If I don't need a privacy and security very high IM tool, that means the information from my circulation is not important enough, most people should be like me is a common micro-credit households. But there is a pinch to ensure that information highly confidential or private users with such as Coverme (trustworthy), Tigertext, Wickr, such as the main safety products. The latter two I did not be able to use the trial, at present coverme is I see the most "organ heavy" products, it is the core of the information should be left in the hands of information, and a variety of "barrier mask" to protect the information is not a second person I see.

Founded 2 years of Coverme in the United States has 1.5 million users, the rest of the world has 500,000 users, its founder Wei Songxiang told 36 Krypton, the current use of Coverme mainly three categories of people, such as lawyers, financiers, doctors, journalists and other professionals, the second is to save private documents of ordinary individuals, Third, those who are unwilling to let all kinds of large companies to obtain their own information geek or something. A business book, acquisition documents and so on do not want to spread out to each other may use Coverme. It has been invested by angels, and Shongjia is also an investor.

According to Wei Songxiang, Coverme used the military 256-bit AES two encryption algorithm. The main means to control the information is to let the sender destroy the information of the receiver, can set different information security level for each information receiver, whether text, picture or more complicated documents can be destroyed unilaterally. It is obvious that this form of reading is not the same as Snapchat analog face-to-face communication, and it seems interesting to use a product mechanism design element for different purposes. The sender receives a notification if the other tries to save a part by intercepting the screen.

In the future, the Enterprise Edition to be developed is an information control center, in addition to a set of rights allocation mechanisms applicable to employees, the enterprise can also destroy any information on the coverme from the source, such as those who immediately leave the staff. This is a response to BYOD trends and mobile office.

That's not to count, Coverme's numerous organs have made me a bit of an eye-popping, mainly to prevent information from being spied on by people outside of himself. Users can set multiple sets of passwords, each password to see the content is not the same; for those "special people" sent information, users can use a code to disguise; it even has another app to cover it, which is a bit like Jinchan off the sheath, shaking the phone coverme will become a news reader. Using browsers in Coverme applications, users can protect their browsing records from service providers, and also enjoy VPN services with a single key. These features are advanced version coverme only, a monthly payment of 5.99 dollars, the current pay rate of 8.5%.

Interestingly, Coverme also has services like virtual operators, where users can use a number of real phone numbers (er, USA only), each with a different interpersonal circle, which is the protection of private space in the context of the expansion of relationships. The user which number does not want to use the direct deletion other people can not contact oneself.

All the use of the scene of their own association bar, political, business, media, 1000 users have 1000 uses, in short, is not willing to be seen their own information.

Wei Songxiang has founded WebEx and Shengwei in the new century two companies, the latter is a distance education company, sold to Huawei. While working in Huawei, he found that Huawei never exchanged any important information on the phone, which in part inspired him to make IM products from privacy. In the context of intellectual property protection, coverme core technology developed in the United States, 3 team members from large companies such as Cisco. Clients in Nanjing Development, a total of more than 20 people.
