Keybase is a new and free security app for mobile phones and computers. Imagine a Slack for the whole world, except end-to-end encrypted across all your devices. Or a Team Dropbox where the server can't leak your files or be hacked.
Keybase is a secure messaging and file-sharing platform designed to provide end-to-end encryption for individuals, groups, and communities.
The main features of this service include:
End-to-End Encryption: Keybase uses public key cryptography to guarantee that your messages stay completely private, ensuring that not even the platform itself can read your chats.
Secure File Storage & Sharing: The platform provides secure storage for your group's photos, videos, and documents, keeping them protected with end-to-end encryption so you do not have to "live dangerously" with your files.
Exploding Messages: For highly sensitive conversations, users can set custom timers on their messages to make them explode and disappear after a set period.
Flexible Team Collaboration: It supports creating secure teams for anyone, making it highly versatile for workgroups, families, roommates, clubs, and groups of friends.
Public Identity Connections: Keybase allows users to connect their accounts to their public identities on other platforms, enabling seamless communication with open communities from places like Twitter and Reddit.
Tor Integration: For users requiring maximum network privacy, Keybase is fully accessible within the Tor network via a dedicated .onion address.
