E2EE

(End-to-End Encryption)

A security and privacy feature that encrypts data before it leaves the sending device, and only decrypts it on the trusted receiving device after it is received. This ensures that data cannot be intercepted by anyone else, including network operators or the government.

This feature is commonly applied to messaging systems, to provide enhanced privacy and security. But it can be applied to other types of communication as well.
