GOFBA Launches Chat, a Secure Communication Platform to Provide a Safer Online Experience

ONTARIO, Calif., June 29, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- GOFBA, a leading secure search engine and communication platform, announced today the launch of GOFBA Chat and a digital communication platform that puts the privacy and security of users first. The new messaging service provides state-of-the-art safety while being user friendly. As an attractive alternative to other big tech options, GOFBA offers the highest-level of encryption available today for its new Chat service and a commitment to privacy which allows users to communicate across the platform with peace of mind.

Chat's features benefit not only consumers with day-to-day interactions but corporations as large enterprises continue to navigate security issues, data breaches and other hurdles to create a safe environment. GOFBA's innovative and extremely secure communication platform overcomes these barriers by incorporating features that put user safety first, and incorporating superior file sharing and data transfer capability. Users can instantly transfer and send important files up to 5 GB in size at speeds up to 10 Gb/s. Individuals can also form groups with an unlimited number of members or send a quick message via SMS.

"GOFBA offers a best-in-class experience between its private search services and a secure chat platform," said Bill DeLisi, GOFBA's CEO. "Users of any age can feel protected and confident jumping from unbiased news articles to communicating with friends or sending a co-worker a confidential file. GOFBA Chat is a milestone launch and part of a suite of offerings that prioritizes user security and safety while providing an easy to navigate platform."

GOFBA Chat is broadly compatible on both desktop PC and Mac operating systems and is complimented by an intuitive, native mobile app for Android and iOS for on-the-go convenience.  The company continues to evaluate new opportunities to enhance the platform's capabilities and plans to integrate additional features such as secure video, voice chat and email all into one platform.
