GPG Overview

Last updated on May 7, 2023 pm

Overview

PGP目前支持的算法

  • 非对称算法: RSA, ELG, DSA, ECDH, ECDSA, EDDSA
  • 对称算法: IDEA, 3DES, CAST5, BLOWFISH, AES, AES192, AES256, TWOFISH, CAMELLIA128, CAMELLIA192, CAMELLIA256
  • 哈希算法: SHA1, RIPEMD160, SHA256, SHA384, SHA512, SHA224
  • 压缩算法: Uncompressed, ZIP, ZLIB, BZIP2

除非量子计算机落地,目前来说2048位的RSA加密是不可破解的。

We need to generate a lot of random bytes. It is a good idea to perform
some other action (type on the keyboard, move the mouse, utilize the
disks) during the prime generation; this gives the random number
generator a better chance to gain enough entropy.

Revocation certificate created.

Please move it to a medium which you can hide away; if Mallory gets
access to this certificate he can use it to make your key unusable.
It is smart to print this certificate and store it away, just in case
your media become unreadable. But have some caution: The print system of
your machine might store the data and make it available to others!

公钥指纹

由于公钥服务器没有检查机制,任何人都可以用你的名义上传公钥,所以没有办法保证服务器上的公钥的可靠性。通常,你可以在网站上公布一个公钥指纹,让其他人核对下载到的公钥是否为真。fingerprint参数生成公钥指纹。

You are selecting a PGP key from your local GnuPG keychain, and
will publish a statement signed with this key to make it part of
your Keybase.io identity.

Note that GnuPG will prompt you to perform this signature.

You can also import the secret key to *local*, *encrypted* Keybase
keyring, enabling decryption and signing with the Keybase client.
To do that, use "--import" flag.

用来代替SSH

涌有了自己pgp key之后,就可以用 gpg-agent 来代替 OpenSSH Agent来进行 SSH操作了。不过替换了之后并不会增加SSH的安全性,额, 折腾精神不死嘛。

硬要说好处的话,大概就可以更方便地使用Yubikey(一种硬件加密智能卡)来SSH。
