It is also recommended to create a separate Kicksecure ™ that is only used for Signal because these instructions require the enabling of the Ubuntu Xenial repository for the desktop client. Signal must already be installed on your Android or iOS device - first follow the download instructions on the Signal homepage if required.
See Community Support for further information, including implications and possible alternatives. Ĭommunity Support Only means Kicksecure ™ developers are unlikely to provide free support for wiki chapters or pages with this tag. See Phone Number Validation vs User Privacy. However, this configuration is not recommended because Signal requires the user provide a phone number for verification.

It is possible to install the standalone Signal Desktop application version for Linux in Kicksecure ™. This is due to the strong architecture and limited metadata available in the ecosystem. Both the client and server code is openly published, and the software is recommended by noted privacy advocates Edward Snowden and Bruce Schneier, among others. The encryption keys are generated and stored at the endpoints (user devices), rather than by the servers. All communications are encrypted end-to-end for security, and mechanisms exist to independently verify the identity of contacts as well as the integrity of the data channel. It supports individual and group messages (files, voice notes, images and video) as well as one-to-one voice and video calls. Signal is a well-respected, free, open source, cross-platform encrypted messaging service.
