GNU Privacy Guard (GnuPG) is actually an open-source implementation of Pretty Good Privacy (PGP). OpenPGP is the most widely used email encryption standard. It is defined by the OpenPGP Working Group of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) as a Proposed Standard in RFC 4880.OpenPGP was originally derived from the PGP software, created by Phil Zimmermann.

How PGP encryption works PGP encryption uses a serial combination of, and finally; each step uses one of several supported. Each public key is bound to a user name or an address. The first version of this system was generally known as a to contrast with the system, which uses a hierarchical approach based on and which was added to PGP implementations later.
Current versions of PGP encryption include both options through an automated key management server. Compatibility As PGP evolves, versions that support newer features and algorithms are able to create encrypted messages that older PGP systems cannot decrypt, even with a valid private key. Therefore, it is essential that partners in PGP communication understand each other's capabilities or at least agree on PGP settings. Confidentiality PGP can be used to send messages confidentially. For this, PGP combines symmetric-key encryption and public-key encryption. The message is encrypted using a symmetric encryption algorithm, which requires a symmetric key. Each symmetric key is used only once and is also called a session key.
The message and its session key are sent to the receiver. The session key must be sent to the receiver so they know how to decrypt the message, but to protect it during transmission it is encrypted with the receiver's public key. Only the private key belonging to the receiver can decrypt the session key. Digital signatures PGP supports message authentication and integrity checking.
The latter is used to detect whether a message has been altered since it was completed (the message integrity property) and the former to determine whether it was actually sent by the person or entity claimed to be the sender (a ). Because the content is encrypted, any changes in the message will result in failure of the decryption with the appropriate key. The sender uses PGP to create a digital signature for the message with either the or algorithms. To do so, PGP computes a hash (also called a ) from the plaintext and then creates the from that hash using the sender's private key. Web of trust.

Townsend Security became involved with PGP encryption in 2000 when the company partnered with Network Associates and ported PGP encryption to the IBM i platform. Later in 2008 Townsend Security ported PGP to the IBM z mainframe. IBM z supports PGP with z/OS encryption facility, which is available for free and uses hardware acceleration.
PGP Corporation encryption applications This section describes commercial programs available from. For information on other programs compatible with the specification, see below. While originally used primarily for encrypting the contents of e-mail messages and attachments from a desktop client, PGP products have been diversified since 2002 into a set of encryption applications which can be managed by an optional central policy server. PGP encryption applications include e-mail and attachments, digital signatures, laptop full disk encryption, file and folder security, protection for IM sessions, batch file transfer encryption, and protection for files and folders stored on network servers and, more recently, encrypted or signed HTTP request/responses by means of a client-side and a server-side module. There is also a Wordpress plugin available, called wp-enigform-authentication, that takes advantage of the session management features of Enigform with modopenpgp.
The PGP Desktop 9.x family includes PGP Desktop Email, PGP Whole Disk Encryption, and PGP NetShare. Additionally, a number of Desktop bundles are also available. Depending on application, the products feature desktop e-mail, digital signatures, IM security, whole disk encryption, file and folder security, encrypted, and of deleted files. Capabilities are licensed in different ways depending on features required.
The PGP Universal Server 2.x management console handles centralized deployment, security policy, policy enforcement, key management, and reporting. It is used for automated e-mail encryption in the gateway and manages PGP Desktop 9.x clients. In addition to its local keyserver, PGP Universal Server works with the PGP public keyserver—called the PGP Global Directory—to find recipient keys. It has the capability of delivering e-mail securely when no recipient key is found via a secure HTTPS browser session. With PGP Desktop 9.x managed by PGP Universal Server 2.x, first released in 2005, all PGP encryption applications are based on a new proxy-based architecture. These newer versions of PGP software eliminate the use of e-mail plug-ins and insulate the user from changes to other desktop applications. All desktop and server operations are now based on security policies and operate in an automated fashion.
The PGP Universal server automates the creation, management, and expiration of keys, sharing these keys among all PGP encryption applications. The Symantec PGP platform has now undergone a rename. PGP Desktop is now known as Symantec Encryption Desktop, and the PGP Universal Server is now known as Symantec Encryption Management Server. The current shipping versions are Symantec Encryption Desktop 10.3.0 (Windows and Mac OS platforms) and Symantec Encryption Server 3.3.2. Also available are PGP Command Line, which enables command line-based encryption and signing of information for storage, transfer, and backup, as well as the PGP Support Package for BlackBerry which enables RIM BlackBerry devices to enjoy sender-to-recipient messaging encryption.
New versions of PGP applications use both OpenPGP and the, allowing communications with any user of a specified standard. OpenPGP Inside PGP Inc., there was still concern about patent issues. RSADSI was challenging the continuation of the Viacrypt RSA license to the newly merged firm. The company adopted an informal internal standard they called 'Unencumbered PGP' which would 'use no algorithm with licensing difficulties'. Because of PGP encryption's importance worldwide, many wanted to write their own software that would interoperate with PGP 5. Zimmermann became convinced that an open standard for PGP encryption was critical for them and for the cryptographic community as a whole.
In July 1997, PGP Inc. Proposed to the that there be a standard called OpenPGP. They gave the IETF permission to use the name OpenPGP to describe this new standard as well as any program that supported the standard. The IETF accepted the proposal and started the OpenPGP. OpenPGP is on the and is under active development.
Many e-mail clients provide OpenPGP-compliant email security as described in. The current specification is (November 2007), the successor to. Specifies a suite of required algorithms consisting of, and. In addition to these algorithms, the standard recommends as described in v1.5 for encryption and signing, as well as, and.
Beyond these, many other algorithms are supported. The standard was extended to support cipher by in 2009, and signing and key exchange based on (i.e. And ) by in 2012. Support for encryption was added by the proposed in 2014. The has developed its own OpenPGP-compliant program called (abbreviated GnuPG or GPG). GnuPG is freely available together with all source code under the (GPL) and is maintained separately from several Graphical User Interfaces that interact with the GnuPG library for encryption, decryption and signing functions (see, ).
Several other vendors have also developed OpenPGP-compliant software. The development of an opensource OpenPGP-compliant library, OpenPGPjs, written in has allowed web based applications to use PGP encryption in the web browser. There are several iOS and Android OpenPGP-compliant applications such as iPGMail for iOS and OpenKeychain for Android, which enable key generation and encryption/decryption of email and files on Apple's iOS and Google's Android.

The open source office suite implemented document signing with OpenPGP as of version 5.4.0 on Linux.
Using OpenPGP for communication requires participation by both the sender and recipient. OpenPGP can also be used to secure sensitive files when they're stored in vulnerable places like mobile devices or in the cloud. Limitations With the advancement of cryptography, parts of PGP have been criticized for being dated:. The long length of PGP public keys.
