First of all, before looking at the difference between KakaoTalk’s existing chat room and secret chat room, and what strengths and weaknesses there are, 1분전
Let’s take a look at the problems of the existing KakaoTalk room.
And in the post below, “KakaoTalk related tips” are summarized and summarized, so if you refer to them, it will be helpful.
▶ KakaoTalk Useful Features & Tips Summary
#.1 Problems of existing KakaoTalk chat rooms
Well, it’s not a huge problem, but it can be inconvenient depending on the user’s environment.
1) As in the picture below, when you receive a KakaoTalk message, the contents from the notification window at the top to the KakaoTalk chat room appear as a “preview”.
2) A smartphone is not a shared PC anyway, and there is no need to borrow or use it with anyone.
Surprisingly, the screen of my smartphone or my PC is often exposed to others.
In crowded places such as buses and subways,
Don’t you often see the smartphone screen of the person next to you without looking at it?
Or, while talking with a friend or co-worker, if you hear a “knock” sound, it’s as if you’ve made an appointment.
Doesn’t everyone get to see that smartphone?
The same goes for PC screens.
I am getting help from someone because I have a problem with my PC, or I am giving a presentation on my PC screen in front of many people.
The “knowledge” of the matter may come.
It’s KakaoTalk while at work.
The really big problem is privacy exposure.
The chat itself can be conducted in a space that only I can see,
KakaoTalk messages that do not know when and where to come and their preview function
Regardless of the intentions of me and others, I can be exposed to the people around me as it is.
It may be a very trivial content, but from someone’s gossip or tickling content with a lover.. or my personal taste,,,
If even a single word of company or national secrets is exposed to just one person, a very tiring situation may come.
Well, as for the detailed situation, if I’ve told you this far, I think you’ve come up with a situation that suits each of you.
#.2 What is KakaoTalk Secret Chat?
If you have mentioned the problems and uncomfortable situations of the existing KakaoTalk above,
This time, I will introduce “Secret Chat”, which has been supplemented with those problems.
* Features of KakaoTalk secret chat room
1) When you receive a KakaoTalk message, the content is not visible in the preview of the top notification or the preview of the chat room.
In regular KakaoTalk, like the picture above, the contents of the message are not shown in advance, but “secret message” is displayed.
Even the name appears, but the contents are not exposed until I actually click the chat room,
Uncomfortable situations can be prevented in advance.
* However, just because it is a secret chat room, it is not a concept that disappears from the chat room list or requires a password to enter.
Further secret features, like the “Telegram” incident that occurred in the first half of 2020,
Since it can be abused for various crimes, I wonder if Kakao implemented only this much.
2) Secret chat rooms only exist on mobile devices, and not on PC KakaoTalk.
Therefore, even if someone uses my PC or, in the worst case, it is hacked, there is no worry about the secret chat room being breached.
because it doesn’t exist at all.
3) In the secret chat room, 1:1 chat rooms as well as group chat rooms are available.
There are two ways to make it.
– How to make an existing chat room into a secret chat room
– How to create a secret chat room by inviting friends from scratch
I will introduce the detailed method a little later, in “Creating a Secret Chat Room”
4) Encryption of chat room conversations
Since this part is Kakao’s confidentiality and security policy, it may be closer to cerebral fissure rather than certain information.
Just as a cell phone call or text record is stored by a telecommunications company,
It is likely that KakaoTalk conversations will also be stored on Kakao’s server.
Of course, I wouldn’t save it for someone to peek at,
It seems to be saved naturally in the process of sending and receiving KakaoTalk contents on the server side.
Since the problem is stored on the server anyway,
It is said that the contents of the conversation can be read in tracking down state orders or crimes.
Regardless of the reasonableness of the use, it can be very unpleasant from the perspective of privacy for individuals anyway.
However, since the conversations in this secret chat room are encrypted,
No matter how Kakao is, it is said that without the decryption key (key), you cannot read the contents of the conversation.
Because this decryption key is stored on the smartphones of members of the “secret chat room”
You must agree with the members and check your mobile phone before you can view it.
It can be said that it is a good function in terms of personal privacy protection.
I’ll show you this on screen in a moment.
(1) Click the 3 lines on the top right of the secret chat room
(2) Click the cogwheel at the bottom right -> Click Public Key,
(3) As shown below, if you click [Check individual public key], the corresponding decryption key is in the chat room.
You won’t be able to access it at will from the server.
(Well, Kakao seems to know how much to trust)
