Abstract

It has been observed in the last few years that android technology is emerging very rapidly. Because of the android technology the smart phones have come into boom. There are various applications developed using the android technology like games, music, shopping, maps etc. One of the most used applications is the chatting application. Chatting application is the most convenient medium to chat or communicate with each other. There are many chat applications developed earlier, but they have some or the other drawbacks. In previous papers there was a major problem related to the security of the messages. But this drawback has been overcome in this paper. Now-a-days most of the communication is preferred to do on mobile, this communication may contain normal talks, personal information or any other sensitive data. For this purpose the security implementation is very necessary. Security can be implemented in many ways like encryption and decryption of the messages, stegnography, hashing etc. In the face of widespread Internet surveillance, we need a secure and practical means of talking to each other from our phones and computers. Many companies offer “secure messaging” products—but are these systems actually secure? Is your communication encrypted in transit? Is your communication encrypted with a key the provider doesn't have access to? Can you independently verify your correspondent's identity? Are past communications secured if your keys are stolen? Is the previous database centralized? And many such questions arise when you use the chatting application. This paper provides solution to the above questions in a more prominent manner.
