How to make a PGP key
Choose "Make a key pair", enter a name and email, pick a key type and a passphrase, and press the button. Copy or download the public key, the private key and the revocation certificate.
Using the key
To send a secret message, paste your friend's public key and choose Encrypt. To read a message sent to you, paste your private key and choose Decrypt.
Common mistakes
- Sharing the private key: only the public key may be given to others.
- Losing the passphrase: it cannot be recovered. Keep it in a password manager.
- Not saving the revocation certificate: it is the only way to retire a key if the private key is lost or stolen.
