About CryptMail APK
Table Of Contents
Description
Do you think your emails are safe?No, absolutely not. Even the secure connections IMAPS/SMTPS provided by the email server just ensures the message is encrypted when they are on transport. When emails are stored on the server, they are plain text! Email server and email service provider knows every detail of your email. They will be figuring out your private informations, what you like, where you live, what you talk about, and use those information to send advertisements to you. The worse case is your privacy information is stolen by a hacker who attaches the server. And the worst case is, you may have some sensitive information like your bank account or credit card info in your email.
So what can you do?
To secure the messages, first we need to encrypt the messages at the beginning, so no plain text exists anywhere except the sender and receiver's device. Second, we shouldn't send password to anybody else, passwords themselves are not secure.
This is what CryptMail is doing:
- encrypting with RSA + AES algorithm, no plain text is sent out
- RSA keys are generated by you on your device, they are only known to your device
- only public key is sent to your contacts, it is used to encrypt messages, but can not be used to decrypt messages
- private key is only on your device and never sent out, this ensures the confidentiality
- if your message is too long for RSA to encrypt, it will be encrypted with a randomly generated AES key using AES algorithm. The AES key will be encrypted with RSA public key and sent together with the message. This ensures efficiency.
This is also what unix secure shell uses to protect informations.
Being cautious is the only way to deal with the security problem we are having today. I have to say, Hilary Clinton was unfortunate. If she had this app, there is no need to create her own email server, gmail or zoho are just fine for her.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
