This encryption is protected from [man-in-the-middle attack](/docs/GLOSSARY.md#man-in-the-middle-attack) by the relay servers, even if they are modified or compromised. SimpleX software is built on top of SimpleX messaging and application protocols, based on a new message routing protocol allowing to establish private connections without having identifiers assigned to its users - it does not use emails, phone numbers, usernames, identity keys or any other user profile identifiers to pass messages between the user applications.
