Chats in Google Messages are about to get even more secure

End-to-end encryption en route

Google has announced that it's bringing end-to-end encryption to group chats in the Google Messages app. End-to-end encryption means no one, not even Google, can read the content of messages.

It's already supported for one-to-one chats, but now it's going to be added to group conversations as well.

From SMS to RCS

Google also continued to push for RCS (Rich Communication Services) to become the new standard for everyone - the technology is an upgrade on SMS.
