GnuPG是一款邮件加密工具

未经加密的邮件很容易被不怀好意的偷窥者看到。如果对带有敏感信息的邮件进行加密和签名,就可以大大提高安全性。使用GNU Privacy Guard(GnuPG)就可以对邮件进行加密,当然你的邮件客户端也要提供相应的支持,如果你使用的是Mozilla Thunderbird,可以到http://enigmail.mozdev.org去下载Enigmail插件,对于Outlook客户端,也可以找到相应的插件。


GnuPG 2.1.2 发布,GnuPG 2.1.x 目前是最新的开发版,该版本主要改进包括:

 * gpg: The parameter 'Passphrase' for batch key generation works again.
 * gpg: Using a passphrase option in batch mode now has the expected effect on --quick-gen-key.
 * gpg: Improved reporting of unsupported PGP-2 keys.
 * gpg: Added support for algo names when generating keys using --command-fd.
 * gpg: Fixed DoS based on bogus and overlong key packets.
 * agent: When setting --default-cache-ttl the value for --max-cache-ttl is adjusted to be not lower than the former.
 * agent: Fixed problems with the new --extra-socket.
 * agent: Made --allow-loopback-pinentry changeable with gpgconf.
 * agent: Fixed importing of unprotected openpgp keys.
 * agent: Now tries to use a fallback pinentry if the standard pinentry is not installed.
