In this article, we will discuss a few points and try to justify how secure Telegram actually is. Let’s get started –
Point 1. Telegram is built on the MTProto Protocol, making it a lot more secure than the usual mass-market messengers like Whatsapp and Line. The time tested algorithms that form the backbone fo the TElegram messenger also ensure. reliability in low connectivity situations.
Point 2. For the extra paranoid users, Telegram offers a ‘secret chat’ mode which offers complete end to end encryption. This means that Telegram will have no access to the contents shared and discussed in those chats.
Point 3. Telegram supports two layers of encryption. We have server-client encryption that works in the cloud chats. Secret chat mode uses another layer of encryption known as the client-client encryption. No matter what it may be, every piece of data flowing through the telegram is encrypted.
