OpenPGP Library for .NET

Online Tutorial and Examples

Why should OpenPGP cryptography be complex when it can be as easy as:

// C#
PGPLib pgp = new PGPLib();
// should output be ASCII or binary
bool asciiArmor = false;
// encrypt
pgp.EncryptFile(@"C:\INPUT.txt",
                @"C:\recipient_public_key.asc",
                @"C:\OUTPUT.pgp",
                asciiArmor);

'-- VB.NET
Dim pgp As New PGPLib()
' should output be ASCII or binary
Dim asciiArmor As Boolean = False
' encrypt
pgp.EncryptFile("C:\INPUT.txt", _
                "C:\recipient_public_key.asc", _
                "C:\OUTPUT.pgp", _
                asciiArmor)

OpenPGP Library for .NET includes methods for OpenPGP encryption, decryption, clear signing, one pass sign and encrypt, decrypt and verify, key generation, supports both key store and keys located in files. Entirely written in managed code, there are no external third party dependencies. Check our Online Examples section for more details.
