When it comes to confidentiality, email and texting are risky. Realizing the same, VaporStream, providers of the preeminent recordless messaging service for confidential communications, recently introduced its new Android (News - Alert) application.
Available for free to users in Google’s Android Market, the new app allows VaporStream customers to communicate without fear of confidential dialogue and information being compromised after delivery using their Android-based smartphones and tablets.
VaporStream eliminates damaging information compromises and regulatory compliance infractions that can occur with email, instant and text messaging because its messages are never recorded.
In a press release, Joseph Collins, Jr., VaporStream co-founder and president, said, “We provide post-delivery control by ensuring that messages can only be read once before they disappear forever. This new Android app furthers our commitment to offering customers the conveniences of electronic communications with a level of privacy one has previously only been able to get through face-to-face conversation.”
VaporStream is a software-as-a-service solution designed to meet the confidentiality concerns of enterprises of all sizes, though it is also used by individuals. Its messages cannot be copy/cut/pasted, forwarded, printed or saved. This helps in preventing sensitive information from being viewed by unintended parties.
During transit, VaporStream utilizes TLS encryption to protect against eavesdropping, with patented technology splitting the message header from the body to prevent meaningful end point screen grabs.
Particularly suited for professionals and companies involved in industries that must communicate highly sensitive information, VaporStream also enables individual users to send, receive and be notified of new messages on their computer desktop and a broad range of mobile devices through simple to install, tightly integrated clients.
In related news, VaporStream has unveiled the next-gen version of its Confidential Messaging platform.
