[COPY] --- SDE-COPYRIGHT-NOTE-END --- [I] The GNU Privacy Guard [T] GnuPG is GNU's tool for secure communication and data storage. [T] It can be used to encrypt data and to create digital signatures. [T] It includes an advanced key management facility and is compliant [T] with the proposed OpenPGP Internet standard as described in RFC2440. [T] [T] Because GnuPG does not use use any patented algorithm it cannot be [T] compatible with PGP2 versions. PGP 2.x uses IDEA (which is patented [T] worldwide). [T] [T] The default algorithms are DSA and ElGamal. ElGamal for signing [T] is still available, but because of the larger size of such [T] signatures it is deprecated (Please note that the GnuPG [T] implementation of ElGamal signatures is *not* insecure). Symmetric [T] algorithms are: 3DES, Blowfish, CAST5 and Twofish (GnuPG does not [T] yet create Twofish encrypted messages because there is no agreement [T] in the OpenPGP WG on how to use it together with a MDC algorithm) [T] Digest algorithms available are MD5, RIPEMD160 and SHA1.
