Abstract

This paper describes a secure messaging web application intended for confidential conversation between two users. The program prevents unwanted users from joining the communication session and emphasizes data security and privacy by not retaining session data. User credentials, including login and password information, are safely kept in a server-connected database. A fundamental aspect of the program is the use of algorithms such as X25519, X3DH, KYBER, and NTRU to securely exchange cryptographic keys between users. These keys are then used to encrypt and decode messages during the communication session. The program encourages the creation of dependable, secure, and creative digital infrastructure by including a bespoke encryption module that supports numerous encryption algorithms, including RSA-OAEP, AES-GCM, DOUBLE RATCHET, CHACHA20-POLY1305, KYBER, and NTRU. This strategy improves communication system resilience, hence strengthening the digital security environment. When you start a session, a random encryption method is chosen, offering an extra degree of protection. Messages are encrypted in the backend before transmission to ensure that every communication is private and safe.  The application promotes confidence in digital platforms by exploiting modern cryptographic methods and technical breakthroughs, hence contributing to the construction of a more secure and sustainable digital environment. The application's design stresses simplicity of use with a user-friendly interface, while still adhering to secure computing best practices to protect user data and privacy. This paper exemplifies a holistic approach to secure communication, helping to build dependable and secure communication technology for an increasingly connected world.
