SMS Encryption and Data Protection - Our $1,000,000 Security Guarantee

Data Breaches Are Everywhere

Major companies around the world face data breaches every year. Customer information, personal messages, and sensitive data get exposed, causing significant harm to millions of people.

Why Do Breaches Keep Happening?

Most services store data in a decrypted state on their servers. This means if hackers gain access to the server, they can read everything.

Even server administrators can see customer information. One successful hack exposes all data at once.

Group SMS Is Different

Individual Encryption Keys Per User

Traditional services use one master key to encrypt all user data. If that key leaks, everyone's data is compromised.

Group SMS works differently:

Every user has their own unique encryption key

Only you know your key

We never store your key on our servers

Our developers and server admins cannot see your key

Military-Grade AES-256-GCM Encryption

Group SMS uses AES-256-GCM algorithm.

AES-256: The standard used by the U.S. government for classified documents

256-bit key: More possible combinations than atoms in the universe

Impossible to crack with current supercomputers

Breaking this encryption would take billions of years with today's technology.

Safe Even If We Get Hacked

What happens if our servers get hacked?

What hackers would get:

Meaningless encrypted data blobs

Messages that are impossible to read without your key

What hackers cannot get:

Actual message content

Contact names

Personal information

Why? Because the decryption key only exists on your device.

Our $1,000,000 Guarantee

We are absolutely confident in our security.

Our Promise

"If your message content is ever leaked due to a hack, we will pay $1,000,000 in compensation."

This isn't marketing hype. It's a promise we can make because it's technically impossible to read your messages without your key.

Why We Can Make This Promise

1. Decryption is impossible without the key: There's no way to read messages without the user's encryption key.

2. Keys are not on our server: Keys exist only on the user's device.

3. Mathematically secure: AES-256 has proven mathematical security.

How We Compare

Traditional SMS Services

Server can see message content

One master key for all encryption

Risk of total data exposure if hacked

Messaging Apps (like WhatsApp, Telegram)

Servers can access messages (for legal requests)

End-to-end encryption exists but keys are on servers

Group SMS

Server cannot see message content

Individual encryption keys per user

Keys never stored on server

Data safe even if server is hacked

Managing Your Encryption Key

Finding Your Key in the App

1. Open the app

2. Go to Settings > Encryption Key

3. Back up this key in a safe place

If You Lose Your Key

Important: If you lose your key, saved messages cannot be recovered.

We don't know your key, so recovery is impossible

You'll need to start fresh with a new key

Always keep your key backed up securely

Key Storage Tips

Write it down and store in a safe place

Save in a password manager app

Store encrypted in a trusted cloud service

Conclusion

While major corporations fall victim to hacks, Group SMS has a fundamentally different design.

Individual encryption keys per user and never storing keys on servers means your messages stay safe even if our servers are compromised.

In an age where data privacy matters, manage your SMS securely with Group SMS.

If your messages leak due to a hack, we pay $1,000,000. That's how confident we are.
