“Today, most email is sent like a postcard. Anybody
on the path can read it, ranging from oppressive govern-
ments to teenagers able to break into networks with far
too many security holes. We all should want to put our
mail back into secure envelopes again. PGP and GPG
are two of the leading tools to make that happen.”
— Brad Templeton, Chairman of the Board,
Electronic Frontier Foundation
Governments around the world, major industrial manu-
facturers, medical facilities, and the best computer
security practitioners trust their secure communications
to PGP (Pretty Good Privacy). But, while PGP works
amazingly when all is in order, it isn’t always easy
to configure, and problems can be very tricky to
troubleshoot. And email security is hardly the sort of
thing you want to leave to trial and error.
PGP & GPG: Email for the Practical Paranoid is for
moderately skilled geeks who may be unfamiliar with
public-key cryptography but would like to protect their
communications on the cheap. Author Michael Lucas
offers an easy-to-read, informal tutorial for communicat-
ing securely with PGP, so you can dive in right away.
Inside PGP & GPG, you’ll learn:
• How to integrate OpenPGP with the most common
email clients (like Outlook and Thunderbird)
• How to use the tricky command-line versions of
these programs
• How to join and use the Web of Trust
• What to do at a keysigning party (besides drink)
PGP & GPG allows anyone to protect his or her
personal data with free tools. If you’re not using PGP
yet, this book will get you started without making you
feel like a deer in headlights. If you’re already using
PGP, it will show you how to use these tools more
easily and effectively to protect your communication.
