OpenPGP Library for .NET

• NET OpenPGP library, 100% managed code.
• User-friendly API in few lines of code.
• OpenPGP and GnuPG compatible.
• Royalty free distribution.

Some of the features provided by OpenPGP are:

• Encrypt and decrypt files
• Digitally sign and verify signatures
• Asymmetric encryption with pairs of public and private keys, creates random session keys, uses them to encrypt files with a symmetric algorithm, and adds the session key encrypted with the recipient public key
• The encrypted files can be either in binary format or ASCII text (called ASCII armored) format
• Keeps private keys encrypted
• Signs third party public keys
• The encrypted file can be compressed (ZIP, ZLib, BZip2)

The most widely used file name extensions for public key files are: .pkr, .asc, .pubkr, .pgpkey

The most widely used file name extensions for private key files are: .skr, .asc, .seckr, .pgpkey

The most widely used file name extensions for encrypted files are: .pgp (binary format), .asc (ASCII armored format)
