| End-to-end encryption | Content is encrypted from sender to recipient. |
| TLP marking | The sender selects a sensitivity label under the Traffic Light Protocol, and the label stays with the message. |
| Closing channels | Channels can be closed when the matter is concluded, so access does not remain open. |
| Archive | Older conversations can be archived for later use. |
| Multi-factor authentication | Sign in using two-factor authentication, PIN and Face ID, and/or your organisation's own IAM service. |

These features are in development and are not included in today's service.
Message marking
Skytale supports the Traffic Light Protocol. The sender chooses a label when sending a message. The organisation enables or disables TLP in the administration portal. With mandatory TLP, the user must select a level before sending. If TLP is disabled, no label is applied. Choose a level below to see what it means for the recipient.
No restrictions on further sharing. Information may be shared freely and publicly, provided copyright and licences are respected.
Use and risk. Used when information carries little or no foreseeable risk of misuse. Replaces the TLP:WHITE label from the previous version of TLP.
Who may receive it
May be shared with colleagues and partner organisations within the relevant community, such as the cybersecurity community, but must not be published or shared through public channels.
Use and risk. Used when information can improve situational awareness in a wider community, for example when warning of threats.
Who may receive it
May be shared within the recipient's organisation and with its clients, but only with those who need to know.
Use and risk. Used when recipients need support to act on information, but sharing beyond the organisations involved creates risks to privacy, reputation or operations. Clients are those receiving cybersecurity services from the organisation.
Who may receive it
May only be shared within your own organisation with those who need to know. Sharing with clients, partners or other external parties is not permitted.
Use and risk. Introduced in TLP 2.0 to distinguish clearly between internal sharing and sharing with clients.
Who may receive it
For individual recipients only. Information must not be shared beyond those directly participating in the meeting or conversation.
Use and risk. Used when information cannot be handled without significant risk to the privacy, reputation or operations of those involved.
Who may receive it
TLP specifies sharing rules, not a security classification or a technical restriction on forwarding. The sender may impose additional restrictions. Read TLP 2.0 at FIRST
