Cifer is very secure. Use responsibly. Cifer is an alternative to provide responsible privacy in a world that is always trying to pry. We use an independent enclosed environment. You are an anonymous endpoint, and we give you full control of the access people have to your endpoint. You can pause, delete, block users. Contacts must be 'Approved' by you. You can add a password, two-factor authentication to your secure email, and even add screen capture block. A destruct timer is right there to control view time. It works. Be safe, be private, and have a life you control. Just Encrypting the 'server' is not enough. We use cryptologic and independent encrypted random tokens for the key. Combined with a super-computer denial encryption, this is your go to app for private talk.
