The present application describes a method, system, and non-transitory computer-readable medium for exchanging encrypted communications using hybrid encryption. According to the present disclosure, a first device receives an encrypted communication from a second device. The encrypted communication includes a first encrypted secret, a second encrypted secret, a first signature, and a second signature. The first device verifies the first signature and the second signature, and, when the first and second signatures are valid, decrypts the first encrypted secret using a first encryption algorithm and the second encrypted secret using a second encryption algorithm. The first device combines the first decrypted secret and the second decrypted secret to recover a first communication and provides the first communication to a user of the first device.
A method receiving and decrypting an encrypted communication, the method comprising:
A system, comprising:
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions that when, executed by at least one processor, perform the steps of:
