Graal messenger uses several layers of security. which i can easily describe here...

A) GIM Client -> B)Transmits Data -> C) Secure Channel -> D)GIM Server

A) GIM Client uses DES (Data Encryption Standard) which is one of the most trusted schemes for secure communication.
B) Data is transferred in a DES format which makes the data being transmitted secure and impossible to decypher without the key which both client and server have hardcoded inside them.
C) Uses DES Standard 64-Bit transmission format.
D) Server also uses DES standard aswell the server stores all information in a RSA encrypted format.

I have also put the following standards down on paper which will be used in handling accounts. Sysops will not have access to private user information such as passwords etc. instead sysops will have access to a control panel where they can instead click a button and send the users password to the registered e-mail. Furthermore sysops will never ask for private user information all they need is your username if that as we will have a web-based Password Retrieval System.


Keep the ideas, suggestions, questions coming!
