About Crypter

About company

Crypter works by first agreeing upon a password between the sender and receiver (we recommend using our online self destructing messaging service ⊗.cf). This password is then used to locally encrypt messages on the sender side, creates ciphered text, which is sent across the Facebook server, and is then used again to locally decrypt the ciphered text on the receivers’ side. It is powered by the Crypto-JS library using AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) encryption methods. Crypter was forced to shut down by Facebook in Feb. 2016 after a Tech Crunch article was written about them
