PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) for secure data transmission

PGP is an asymmetric encryption method in which the sender and receiver use two different keys (public key / private key). Strictly speaking, it is a hybrid encryption method in which the actual message is symmetric and the key is asymmetrically encrypted. More detailed information about PGP can be found on Wikipedia.
The latest version of Open Source Software ("Free Software" OSS) for using the PGP functionality is always available at:
