AWS Dives Into the Secure Messaging Scene

On its site, Wickr states that it’s “the only collaboration service with full functionality to meet all security criteria outlined by the National Security Agency.” This is probably why it’s so popular with high-profile agencies, including the US Department of Defense and the Council on Foreign Relations.

AWS previously only offered one messaging service: Chime. While the feature is great for online meetings and virtual conferences, it doesn’t offer end-to-end encryption.
