Encryption

Encryption is one of the key parts of the solution. W3XShare utilises AES-randomly generated secret key to enable end-to-end encryption.

A random secret key is generated to encrypt content, which is shared between wallet client A (i.e. sender) and wallet client B (i.e. receiver). Content is encrypted with AES encryption (i.e. Advanced Encryption Standard). The receiver obtains the secret key from a sender using external communication (i.e. email, chat…) to decrypt the content.

Explainer: Randomly generated secret key must be delivered to the receiver via external communication (email, chat...)
