- title: "Researching All Layers"
|
|
text: "Concerned with all layers in the stack including underlying
|
|
transports, p2p overlays and routing, initial trust establishment, and
|
|
semantics for things like group chat."
|
|
|
|
- title: "Peer-to-Peer"
|
|
text: "The protocols we work on are pure peer-to-peer, and aim to minimize
|
|
centralization. This too is in opposition to many initiatives in the
|
|
secure messaging space."
|
|
|
|
- title: "Security, Privacy, Censorship Resistance"
|
|
text: "Assumes the basics such as end-to-end encryption, forward secrecy,
|
|
avoiding MITM-attacks. Vac also places a premium on privacy and
|
|
censorship resistance from port blocking, traffic analysis, and
|
|
similar."
|
|
|
|
- title: "Modular System"
|
|
text: "Provide options at each layer in the stack, instead of having a
|
|
tightly coupled set of protocols. Allowing developers to choose what
|
|
they use and ensure they know each choice comes with different
|
|
trade-offs."
|
|
|
|
- title: "Generalized Messaging"
|
|
text: " This includes both human to human communication, as well as machine to
|
|
machine communication. Texting, data transfer, financial transactions,
|
|
state channels and more."
