 LoRa uses a ‘chirp pattern’ signaling method, which allows the signal to better penetrate through obstacles and also cover long distances. Due to its low power consumption, LoRa devices can operate on batteries for weeks at a time, making them ideal for remote or mobile deployments.

 Let's talk about how Meshtastic uses encryption so we can better understand how keep our messages secure.
 
 Meshtastic does use strong AES256 encryption to secure its channels, ensuring that messages sent within these channels remain private.
 
-Each channel in has a unique key used for encryption. This key is used to encrypt messages sent within that channel, including direct messages between users on the same channel. The default LongFast channel has a publicly known key (AQ==). This means that anyone can join this default channel, and messages sent over this channel are not secure since the key is publicly available. For better security, it is recommended to create private channels with unique keys. These keys should be shared securely (using a secure communication method like Signal) with those you want to communicate with. This ensures that only intended participants can access the channel.

-Direct messages in Meshtastic are not as secure if the initial contact was made on the default LongFast channel because the encryption key for DMs would be the same publicly known key. Therefore, it is better to use private channels with unique keys for more secure communications. Sharing the channel keys outside the mesh network and not through DMs on the default channel adds an extra layer of security.
