Instant Messaging is one of the most popular ways of communication in today’s world. Not just private individuals but also professionals rely on services such as Yahoo Instant Messaging, or MSN to communicate with their peers, collegues, or clients.
As we have recently highlighted in one of our previous posts (e.g. What Hackers Can See on Your Networks), instant communication can easily be intercepted and – unless encrypted – should be handled with care when discussing confidential or private matters.
Luckily, there are programs like BitDefender’s Chat Encryption, a free tool that allows you to encrypt your instant messaging without you even noticing it. Once installed, the application works silently in the background and does not require further attention. As long as your chat partner uses the same application, all your instant messages to this contact will automatically protected.
