Quote from: StExo on July 01, 2012, 01:59 amTo cut a long story short, I am moving some operations local and preferably need to communicate at times speaking aloud doesn't adequately fit. Is there any current encryption methods I could use for texting. PGP is too long to incorporate into texts and whilst there are some "encryption" apps on the android market, I am looking for something which can send through text and be decrypted by text in a similar fashion to PGP without the extensively long messages.Phil Zimmermann, the original author of PGP, is launching a new service to provide email, text/message, VoIP and voice (mobile/cell) encryption for Android and iOS. It's called Silent Circle and it might help, depending on how much of it depends on all the other parties having the same service.Quote from: StExo on July 01, 2012, 01:59 amIs there anything on the market which encrypts the entire device and messages? Price isn't an issue. But it should be completely secured even if seized and if possible, replicate truecrypt's method of hidden volumes so "clean" texts would appear with password A and otherwise will appear with password B.I'm not sure about encrypting the entire device, especially in the manner TrueCrypt does. I also haven't looked at Limetless' offerings, but if it is hardware based encryption then it may fit the bill.If a phone like that isn't an option, then a secure server somewhere that provides all the secured and encrypted communicatios options that you access remotely (via SSH or VPN) from your Android phone might be a reasonable work around. In that case stored communication would be on the server and all your phone needs to have is the client to access it remotely.
