What is Pidgin-Encryption?

The Pidgin encryption plugin leverages the NSS crypto library from Mozilla to provide up to 4096-bit RSA encryption for secure messaging. The plugin automatically handles key transmission and storage, simplifying the user experience while also defending against man-in-the-middle attacks. This tool enhances the privacy and confidentiality of Pidgin conversations, enabling users to communicate sensitive information through an extra layer of protection
