@gianmarcogg03 @element Cybersecurity involves much more than just secure communication, i.e. end-to-end encryption. If confidential data is leaked, then that would be a security breach. Security services generally try to compromise your device, either through backdoors or malware, and read the decrypted messages directly. However, social engineering is often easier, especially if organisations do not provide additional security measures and training. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_security
