BeeNut takes security and privacy very seriously, and we've taken measures to ensure that your conversations are private and personal with secure encryption channel technology implemented over all supported platforms. Never again will you have to worry that sensitive information sent over IM can be read by strangers, or intercepted by hackers and other prying eyes. Secure channel is always activated and working between BeeNut users, around the clock and regardless of platform preference!

1) Encrpytion transfer with MD5, which prevents the chatting from monitoring.

Encrpytion transfer with MD5, which prevents the chatting from monitoring. And MSN transfers whithout encrpytion, which could easily be monitored.

(Presently, the rather populer IM software MSN transfers its instant messages through non-encrpytion mode. And this non- encrpytion messages can be easily intercepted by some special monitoring software, such as the familiar MSN Sniffer software.

BeeNut transfers process uses the MD5 encrpytion technology, so that each transfers can create new random code and initial vectors to encrpyte the message from being monitored ; Under this encrpytion mode, even if user's password is monitored by someone, he also couldn't join midway to wiretap user's traffic, consequently BeeNut safeguards user's security for MSN chatting.

2) Local multipal encrpytion, which prevents the chatting record from stealing;

MSN doesn't encrpyte the local chatting records, that, anyone could look over MSN user's chatting record on the same computer, which provides no protection to users' intimacy.

Refer to the disfigurement of MSN, BeeNut specially encrpytes the local chatting records, therefore, only the user himself could see his records which fully safeguards users' intimacy.

BeeNut's local encrpytion adopts the AES-128-CBC encrpytion mode, whose code and inicial vectors use the 16 byte length data that BeeNut calls Primary Key.

Primary Key is random created when user applying the BeeNut ID, and Primary Key for each user is different.

Primary Key commonly saved as double copies. One is the encrpyted code results from twice encrpyted calculating the password by especial arithmetic. This code will be sent to BeeNut software as user's login, then BeeNut software will undo the Primary Key's original text to encrpyte or undo the local data.

The other copy is the Primary Key's non- encrpyted language which doesn't use in common days. When user recreates the password, BeeNut will reread this non- encrpyted language to ensure user's local data wouldn't miss due to the missing of password.

This mechanism ensures that one can not open local data without login to BeeNut server, and ensures user's security of local data.
