Off-the-Record (OTR) Messaging allows you to have private
|
|
conversations over instant messaging by providing:
|
|
|
|
* Encryption
|
|
No one else can read your instant messages.
|
|
* Authentication
|
|
You are assured the correspondent is who you think it is.
|
|
* Deniability
|
|
The messages you send do not have digital signatures that
|
|
are checkable by a third party. Anyone can forge messages
|
|
after a conversation to make them look like they came from
|
|
you. However, during a conversation, your correspondent is
|
|
assured the messages he sees are authentic and unmodified.
|
|
* Perfect forward secrecy
|
|
If you lose control of your private keys, no previous
|
|
conversation is compromised.
