Editor's Note: This is the second piece of a series of three articles about Gryphn and their ArmorText application.

We are all acquainted with the commonly held theory that teenagers often sext. Sexting has slowly edged its way into becoming one of the modern modes of relationship sustainability. Anywhere from inappropriate suggestive language to grotesque images, youth are utilizing their mobiles to advance their personal lives, but do they really remain as secretive as the user hopes? More often than not, the answer is no.

The damaging pictures and messages sent by kids could potentially impact their college careers as well as their future business ventures. Dirty laundry has a way of showing up when you least expect it. To ensure a separation between public and private, ArmorText has joined the market. It not only saves you from putting your inappropriate conversations on display, but also shields you from your regular, everyday mistakes.

The first of its kind, ArmorText is a "secure text messaging solution that allows you to send encrypted messages to anyone on your contact list, just like sending a regular message. All you have to do is type your text message and simply turn security on," Bobby Saini, CMO & Co-Founder of Gryphn, told me. "You have the ability to send secure and regular text messages from within one app so you don't have to jump back and forth."

The efficiency of having one application to control all aspects of a message seems too good to be true, but Armor texts ensures it. Users have jurisdiction over the majority of the products features including whether a message can be saved or forwarded by the person they are sending the text to. Eventually, ArmorText will also allow users to determine how long they wish their message to be available for as well as how many times it can be viewed. The advantages of ArmorText are endless.

Though presently in beta, ArmorText has received great ratings on the Google Play store with a couple thousand downloads without any major press whatsoever. Those interested on the enterprise side include hospitals and financial institutions. Because of the new regulations pushing the healthcare industry to seek electronic solutions to protect patient confidentiality, hospitals have an interest in securing their mobile text messaging communications. Financial institutions are also seeking solutions to help them meet regulatory compliance laws. Gryphn's ArmorText is gearing up to takeover the mobile world, in a safe and secure way.
