Firm claims to have cracked Signal encryption
Israeli security firm Cellebrite has claimed that it can decrypt messages from Signal s highly secure chat and voice-call app, boasting that it could disrupt communications from gang members, drug dealers and even protesters .
According to one encryption expert, the claims sounded believable .
The BBC has contacted Cellebrite and Signal for comment.
Highly encrypted apps such as Signal and Telegram have become popular among people keen to keep their messages private. The adoption rates have worried law enforcement agencies, who feel they are hampering their ability to investigate crimes. Apps like these make parsing data for forensic analysis extremely difficult, writes Cellebrite.
