Signal Veterans Want to Encrypt Slack, Google Docs, and Basically Every Other App

tech

According to Gizmodo, engineers from Signal—the encryption team behind the app trusted by journalists and security researchers—are building Encrypted Spaces, a system that adds verifiable end-to-end encryption to Slack, Google Docs, and other workplace platforms. The key: users can independently confirm the encryption works, even if the service itself is compromised. You don't have to trust the company; you trust the mathematics. It's Signal's core principle—security through transparency and cryptography—applied to everyday work tools.
