Asymmetric encryption and decryption series table of contents

This is the Asymmetric encryption and decryption series table of contents. The series covers making and verifying digital signatures in Linux.

Sending encrypted emails and decrypting received emails using GnuPG
Maria D. Campbell
In this piece, I demonstrate three ways to verify the decrypted content sent to and received from a user on a local network using the Mutt email client.

Using a specific PGP key pair for digital signing
Maria D. Campbell
In this post, I demonstrate and describe what "Digital signing a file using a specific key" means.

Making and verifying a cleartext digital signature using a PGP key pair in Linux
Maria D. Campbell
In this post, I describe how to create and verify a cleartext signature using a PGP key pair. I also show how to create a detached signature and when I would want to use it over a cleartext signature.

Making and verifying a detached signature using a PGP key pair in Linux
Maria D. Campbell
In this post, I show how I create a detached digital signature and verify it. Then I compare it to a complete digital signature. And finally, I introduce the cleartext digital signature, and how it differs both from the complete and detached digital signatures.

Making and verifying digital signatures using GPG in Linux
Maria D. Campbell
In this article, I discuss what a digital signature is, which should be used (PGP or PKI), and how to create, edit, list, and delete a PGP public key uid. I also describe how to create a revocation certificate for a PGP key pair.
