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

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.
