• How to Automate Encryption with C++ Script

  The other day I noticed that I had compressed several files as backups on a DVD media (the DVDs were at least 15 years old) and I had also encrypted all of them with GnuPG. - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

• GPG secret key: How to change the passphrase

  Suppose you get along with GPG (The GNU Privacy Guard, GnuPG) for good privacy, and sometimes want to change the passphrase of its secret key. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Is there a way to encrypt gmail emails?

  GnuPG will do this, but both people need to have it set up properly. Source: almost 2 years ago

• pyaction 4.19.0 Released

  This Docker image is designed to support implementing Github Actions With Python. As of version 4.0.0., it starts with The official python docker image as the base Which is a Debian OS. It specifically uses python:3-slim to keep the image size Down for faster loading of Github Actions that use pyaction. On top of the Base, we've installed curl Gpg, git, and the GitHub CLI. We added curl and gpg because they Are... - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago

• [Request] Here is a drawing of a cat. Unfortunately a superhacker form the future is after it (the hacker has dyson-sphere super computers etc.). I encrypt the cat using a random number from 1 to N as password, and the hacker knows this as well. What N do you recommend? WHY? (math too pls)

  Though FWIW my real answer, if you were asking this as a practical question rather than an educational exercise, would be to find some existing standard encryption program and use that. Something like GPG, perhaps, or even the built-in encryption in your computer's filesystem. It's going to be plenty good enough. Source: about 2 years ago

• Alternative to Encrypto

  Https://gnupg.org/ maybe? If you want to encrypt stuff in the cloud, storj is good. Source: about 2 years ago

• rsync command sanity check request

  I've now started creating archives of my data with 7zip and encrypting them with GnuPG so that I can store them "safely" on the cloud via another process. This produces a .7z.gpg file. I now want to switch my rsync backups to use these archives, and I'm unsure which flags and/or options I do and don't need. Source: about 2 years ago

• Is double-encrypting actually redundant?

  If your worried about being stuck somewhere and you need to encrypt data like this your best bet is asymmetrical encryption. You can be very public about your public key and do not need to hide it. The whole point is that you or others can encrypt data without knowing a preshared key to begin with. I would also suggest you use gnupg. https://gnupg.org/. Source: over 2 years ago

• Using LastPass to store your keys? Time to create new wallets and transfer all your coins

  Download a GPG client and get started. You can use it directly on the command line (gpg command), or use a graphical/GUI frontend, such as Kleopatra for Windows and Linux, GPG Suite for macOS, or OpenKeychain for Android . Other options are available. Source: over 2 years ago

• Open-source social media integrator for personal use?

  To prove your identity you could sign your communications using PGP. This is something common in email, for example. Https://gnupg.org/. Source: over 2 years ago

• Looking for a simple tool to enter secret phrase and text to encrypt/decrypt

  The standard for offline encryption/decryption is pretty much OpenPGP. So GnuPG or any other OpenPGP implementation if you care about doing things in a standardized way. Source: over 2 years ago

• Ask HN: CLI Tool for File Encryption?

  I recently came across sigtool[1] which on the surface looks like a slightly more well defined tool/format for encryption than age[2]. And they both attempt to be simpler, more modern than gnupg[3] and easier to use than eg: openssl[4]. Which tool do you use/recommend for encrypting files, and why? My primary use case is for backups - but interested in other use-cases as well. [1]... - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago

• Use git-secret to store encrypted secrets in the repository

  Gpg is short for The GNU Privacy Guard and is an open source implementation of the OpenPGP standard. In short, it allows us to create a personal key file pair (similar to SSH keys) with a private secret key and a public key that can be shared with other parties whose messages you want to decrypt. - Source: dev.to / about 3 years ago

• how can i encrypt and decrypt string using rsa algorithm. is there a lib or something

  Probably you want to use TLS (SSL) or GPG. They are used everywhere and there are libraries for both which you can use. Source: about 3 years ago
