Crait Lite is where secure communication and collaboration happens. It is a secure messaging tool designed to make working life easier and more productive for work-groups. Why Crait? The simple answer is: Businesses need to protect their digital assets. Businesses are targets and will be targets of cyber hacking because they have information valuable to would-be criminals. No sector of corporate America is excluded from the threat of cyber hacking. This is why at Crait, we believe that business communication deserves a security upgrade. What Crait provides - Secure one-on-one or group calls and can support chats with up to 1000 people. - Messages that self-destruct after the messages are read. - End-to-end encryption between the sender’s device and the recipient such that the encryption key never leaves the device; no party in the middle. - Secure chat, voice, as well as file-sharing capabilities to work-groups. - Secure email for Crait-to-Crait users.
