Zoho fasttracks end-to-end encryption for its WhatsApp rival Arattai

Zoho has accelerated the scheduled rollout of end-to-end encryption for its messaging platform Arattai, cofounder Sridhar Vembu said in a social media post on Wednesday.

Legacy cloud storage in Arattai will be turned off to offer end-to-end encrypted chats, Vembu said. This feature is in testing right now, he added.

Zoho Cliq, the previous iteration of Arattai, used cloud storage “because business users and admins need search, filtering, archiving, integration and other functions,” Vembu said.
