The decision whether a created room should be encrypted in this way must be well thought out and cannot be undone. If the room is large or public, checking all keys of all interlocutors could take a lot of time. But this manual check can be done later on occasion and end-to-end encrypted conversations can be started directly with blind trust for the time being.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
If you want end-to-end encryption (E2EE) to interlocutor:inside in an unencrypted room, you can achieve this by clicking on the settings of the desired room. (or in the room via "Room info" > "Room settings" in the upper right corner):
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
To do this, move the Encrypted slider on the Security & Privacy tab:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
This can be confirmed with OK. From now on the messages can only be read by those involved in the conversation. If you have not set up a key protection in the settings before, you should do this now (see [Important settings](/settings/)) to be able to read earlier and in absence received messages.
|
||||
|
||||
Now the encrypted exchange can begin. If you want to verify the correctness of the keys and to document this trustworthiness digitally, you first have to unfold the sidebar by clicking on the person symbol in the upper right corner:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The contact person can now be clicked on in the opening bar of the participants in the conversation:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The bar now shows the conversation person in detail. Here a key verification can be initiated by clicking on "Verify". By clicking on "Start Verification" the other side is notified and after confirmation (see next picture) the "Verification by Emojis" can start.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
This verification should be done with the contact person by comparison (e.g. verbally via telephone, in the same room or other medium). Since this is not always easy, the trust can also be expressed first of all (otherwise you will be asked again and again to carry out the verification) and carried out on occasion (e.g. at the next meeting).

If you omit this here as well, you will get a last warning if you log off consciously. If no key backup is set up at the latest, encrypted calls that may have already taken place cannot be accessed later. If the tab is closed, this also corresponds to a logout.

||||
|
||||
Avoid this situation by setting up a key backup!

In recent years, the need for supporting digital tools for team collaboration has increased. A central tool is a team chat. According to Wikipedia, a chat refers to "electronic communication by means of written text in real time, usually via the Internet" ([Source](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chat)). With a messenger team members can make each other aware of current information and especially share links (*hyperlinks* / *links*) for further collaboration (e.g. for finding appointments, collaborative writing, planning events, editing data, code, mind maps,).

Fortunately, 1:1 calls start end-to-end encrypted by default. To really trust this encryption with a good feeling, users:inside can perform the key comparison with interlocutor:inside. To ensure that this also applies to all devices of these conversational partners, Matrix users must in turn verify the keys of all their devices with each other (technical term: cross-signing). If you follow the instructions below, this can be done very conveniently.

* The many cryptographic keys are stored on the respective device. If this is e.g. a tab in a browser, there is a risk that this tab will be closed unintentionally. Then all encrypted contents are no longer readable. To prevent this from happening, a key protection is offered on the home server of envs.net, on which (protected by a passphrase) all cryptographic keys are stored encrypted.

## Secure Backup
|
||||
|
||||
If not set up after initial registration: The **Secure Backup** is a valuable achievement, as it enables the keys of all end-to-end encrypted calls to be centrally secured on the envs.net server with a password. This allows convenient use of multiple devices or matrix clients. To do so, click on "Start using key backup" and choose a strong security phrase (but not the envs.net password). This security phrase will always have to be entered if keys are to be synchronized with the key backup.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, instead of the security phrase, you can also have a security key generated that serves the same purpose as the security phrase. Furthermore, the security key is generated in addition to the security phrase and should be kept safe and retrievable as an emergency key (e.g. save it as .txt file or print it out)
