End-to-end encryption has become a de facto standard in messengers, especially after the outbreak of the highly secure messaging protocol – Signal. However, this high adoption of secure end-to-end communications has been limited to messengers, and has not yet seen a noticeable trace in social network platforms, despite the increase in users’ privacy violations. The Stick protocol is an end-to-end encryption protocol, based on the Signal protocol, specifically designed for social networks. The Stick protocol supports re-establishable "many-to-many" encryption sessions in an asynchronous and multi-device setting while preserving forward secrecy and introducing backward secrecy. Evaluation 📈 <a target="_blank" href="https://omarbasem.com/pages/stickProtocolEvaluation.html">results</a> of the Stick protocol shows that it causes no noticeable compromise on usability or performance.A 📄 <a href="https://omarbasem.com/PDFs/StickProtocolPaper.pdf">Scientific Paper</a> is available for those interested in the project’s technical and research motivations.
