Abstract:
Systems, methods, and computer program products for providing secure messaging communications are disclosed. For example, a computer-implemented method may include receiving an encrypted message and a key from a sender associated with a first computing device where the encrypted message is generated by the first computing device, verifying the received key at least in part based on a comparison with a pre-determined key, processing one or more unique factors associated with the sender in view of verifying the received key, decrypting the encrypted message, re-encrypting a result of the decrypting using a key of a receiver associated with a second computing device, and sending the re-encrypted result to the receiver associated with the second computing device.
