Abstract
End-to-End Encryption (E2EE) is a critical security feature that has become a standard in many modern chat applications. It ensures that messages and other forms of communication are only accessible to the sender and recipient, safeguarding privacy by making intercepted messages unreadable to anyone else. Despite its significance, many users and developers still struggle to understand how E2EE works at a technical level. This paper breaks down the mechanics of E2EE in chat applications, explaining how encryption is applied, the technologies involved, and how the encryption process ensures message confidentiality from sender to receiver.
