Secure collaboration and messaging.
Topsecret is designed to protect users and their privacy. A faculty, university or research department can host its own messaging and collaboration on-premise to retain full ownership and control. Alternatively, Topsecret is available as a fully-managed hosted solution that provides the same level of data ownership.
End-to-end encryption by default keeps users’ conversations and files safe, while cross-signed device verification using QR codes or emoji comparisons guards against imposters and attackers.
For larger deployments, single sign-on (SSO), antivirus and audit bots bring an extra layer of security and help ensure compliance.
Unique opportunities for education.
