ChatEncryptor
This Minecraft plugin is specifically designed to enable secure player communication through an encrypted chat message system. With its help, users can exchange encryption keys with other game participants, organizing completely confidential conversations.
How It Works
Key Exchange: Players can share their encryption keys with others using the /sharekey <playerName>
command. This operation sends a request that the recipient can either approve or decline.
Request Confirmation: When receiving a key exchange request, a participant can accept it with the /ceallow
command or decline it using /cedeny
.
Message Encryption: Text sent to chat is protected using the RSA >algorithm. Only players who have exchanged keys can see the original content of messages. For others, the information appears as a set of encrypted characters, ensuring the privacy of personal data.
Key Management: To view the list of users with whom keys have been exchanged, there's the /viewkeyshares
command. A specific key can be removed using /delkeyshare <playerName>
.
Protection Against Spam and Advertising
ChatEncryptor effectively combats spam distribution and intrusive advertising:
Message Encryption: By converting chat text into unreadable content for outsiders, the plugin deprives automated bots of the ability to recognize keywords. Since encrypted information cannot be decrypted by bots, they cannot use chat for advertising or spam distribution.
Privacy
The plugin significantly increases privacy levels and reduces the likelihood of complaints about offensive messages:
Chat Encryption: The main feature of ChatEncryptor is the application of encryption for all messages. Any correspondence between players becomes inaccessible to those who don't have the appropriate keys. Thus, potentially unacceptable content remains hidden from prying eyes and monitoring systems.
