I just released versions 0.6.2 of rsop, a stateless #OpenPGP ("SOP") CLI tool based on @rpgp:
Changes since rsop 0.6.0:
- decryption based on session keys is now supported,
- generation of man pages and shell tab completion has been added,
- some subtle semantics fixes for component key validity were implemented.
For more on #SOP, see datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft…
This document defines a generic stateless command-line interface for dealing with OpenPGP messages, certificates, and secret key material, known as sop.IETF Datatracker
It is possible for #chatmail users to communicate with classic email users who have published their public key.
You just have to do manual chatmail registration, save your login details and private key securely, and use it with something that supports #pgp like #Thunderbird or #Mailvelope.
I just released version 0.1.0 of rsop-oct, a new stateless #OpenPGP ("SOP") CLI tool that focuses exclusively on use with OpenPGP card hardware devices:
crates.io/crates/rsop-oct/0.1.…
Like its sibling project #rsop, rsop-oct is based on @rpgp
In the next release of rsop, OpenPGP card functionality will be removed from it.
The goal is to offer clear UX in two distinct simple CLI tools, as opposed to one combined and confusing CLI tool.

Couldn't the #pgp #encryption in @thunderbird@mastodon.online be set so that a user who has not set up their own pgp key can still send encrypted mails to recipients whose key can be retrieved from the #WKD?
Oha, das ist provokativ: Dieser Blogartikel sagt:
- Nutzt kein #PGP / #GPG
- Nutzt kein #XMPP + OMEMO
- Nutzt kein #Matrix (im Sinne: verlasst euch nicht auf die Verschlüsselung)
- E-Mails verschlüsseln ist sinnlos

If you've recently installed Thunderbird for Android and want to add PGP support, a new article from @ZDNet has you covered. (And seriously, it's a great article!)

If you need to add encryption or digital signing to the Thunderbird email app (or other supporting apps) on Android, there's one clear and easy route to success.Jack Wallen (ZDNET)
I just released version 0.4.1 of #rsop, a stateless #OpenPGP ("SOP") CLI tool based on @rpgp:
This release adds support for the 'revoke-key' command.

rPGP is an #OpenPGP implementation in pure #Rust (crates.io/crates/pgp).
It serves as the end-to-end encryption engine for Delta Chat:
@delta, a secure decentralized messager for all major platforms (and then some).
rPGP implements all generations of the OpenPGP standard, up to and including the new RFC 9580.
New release today: #rPGP version 0.14.0 ✨
(#OpenPGP implemented in pure #Rust, permissively licensed)
github.com/rpgp/rpgp/releases/…
This release brings rather complete support for the excellent new OpenPGP RFC 9580 (also known as "crypto refresh", or "v6")
RFC 9580 standardizes modern cryptographic mechanisms for OpenPGP: AEAD-based encryption, Argon2, and SHA2 fingerprints for the new OpenPGP v6 key format (v4 keys use SHA1).
Thanks @NGIZero for supporting this work!
Last year, the @sovtechfund fund invited us, the Sequoia PGP Project, to join their new Bug Resilience Program.
Today, I'm pleased to announce that we are publicly launching our bug bounty program with rewards of up to €10,000 for novel, security-relevant issues in Sequoia applications, libraries, or specifications. #pgp

Sequoia is a modular OpenPGP implementation in Rust.sequoia-pgp.org
In the past few weeks, I spent a bit of time on a set of #OpenPGP hobby projects around #rpgp (github.com/rpgp/rpgp/). Today I'm happy to announce:
rsop v0.1.0 (crates.io/crates/rsop), an early stage "stateless OpenPGP" tool based on rpgp.
Relatedly, I also released rpgpie 🦀️🔐🥧 v0.0.1 (crates.io/crates/rpgpie), an experimental high level OpenPGP API based on rpgp (rsop is built on top of rpgpie).

Thunderbird is an email client with built-in support for PGP encryption.
Messages are encrypted/decrypted in the client and remain encrypted on email servers, this is client-side encryption.
Some email providers support PGP encryption server-side, this method could be vulnerable to third-party decryption of emails.

Having decidedly too much fun playing with ancient #PGP artifacts.
Note the two version 2 public keys from 1992. They were created just over a year after Phil Zimmermann first released PGP (on 6 June 1991), deep in the crypto war era.
These keys predate the #OpenPGP name by around half a decade.
At over 31 years old, nation-state actors can definitely factor John Gilmore's RSA 1024 key today.
However, I believe the cost still exceeds a hobbyist budget even now.
LibreOffice supports symmetric and asymmetric encryption for OpenDocument Format (ODF) files.
Select File > Save/Save As
The "Save with password" option encrypts the file with AES-256.
The "Encrypt with GPG key" option encrypts the file with a public key.

What about #PgP in the future of k9/Thunderbird for android?
#dev #mobile #k9mail #android #thunderbird #opensource
Great to see you around the Fediverse 🥳
And I'm looking forward to see #Thunderbird on Android
However, I think that @Ahorn and @fuomag9 have raised two important points that I'd like to second:
Please plan to publish your app via #FDroid right from the start - and include encryption via #PGP and #SMIME
Oh - and just drop the word here when you start looking for beta testers 😊
