Our white papers provide technical information about BitWise and BitWise features.

Introduction to encryption and how BitWise uses encryption Acrobat Text

Data transmitted over the Internet passes through many servers and/or routers and there are many opportunities for third parties to intercept that transmission. Preventing interception is impossible; instead, the data must be made unreadable (encrypted) during transmission.

 
BitWise's Dual-IP Technology for Intranet usage Acrobat Text

BitWise is designed as an Internet and an Intranet messenger. That is to say, BitWise can be used on the Internet, or on an Intranet/LAN/VPN without sending your conversations and files over the Internet. This gives BitWise the distinct advantage over most other instant messaging systems which are not able to make connections on an Intranet/VPN.

 
Using the Routing Server with BitWise Professional Acrobat Text

BitWise Professional users enjoy complete isolation and privacy from other BitWise users while still being able to establish direct connections both in and among different locations (such as offices in different cities), even without a VPN linking all of the locations.

 
Themes specifications and creation instructions Acrobat Text

BitWise versions 1.0.0 and higher can be themed, allowing users to change almost all of the icons used in BitWise. This document provides all the information needed to create a BitWise theme using the new theme specifications for BitWise 1.0.5 and higher.

 
Conferences technical details Acrobat Text

Conferences in BitWise IM work only with direct connections. Unlike regular messaging, conference messages cannot be run through the server. This means that users who are behind routers or firewalls may have difficulty as a conference host, since their ability to make direct connections to other users will be limited.
