Project description:
GnuPG (the GNU Privacy Guard or GPG) is GNU's tool for secure
communication and data storage. It can be used to encrypt data and to
create digital signatures. It includes an advanced key management
facility and is compliant with the proposed OpenPGP Internet standard
as described in RFC2440. As such, it is meant to be compatible with
PGP from NAI, Inc. Because it does not use any patented algorithms,
it can be used without any restrictions.
