# The security/pidgin-otr port

## pidgin-otr-4.0.2v0 – allows deniable private conversations using Pidgin

## Description

    Off-the-Record (OTR) Messaging allows you to have private
    conversations over instant messaging by providing:

    * Encryption
    	No one else can read your instant messages.
    * Authentication
    	You are assured the correspondent is who you think it is.
    * Deniability
    	The messages you send do not have digital signatures that
    	are checkable by a third party. Anyone can forge messages
    	after a conversation to make them look like they came from
    	you. However, during a conversation, your correspondent is
    	assured the messages he sees are authentic and unmodified.
    * Perfect forward secrecy
    	If you lose control of your private keys, no previous
    	conversation is compromised.
