About
A modern, cross-platform OpenPGP tool with a unique dual-engine core: switch freely between the battle-tested GnuPG and a modern, memory-safe Rust rPGP backend. It makes encryption, signing, and key management easier and more trustworthy in everyday privacy workflows.
- Easy: Encrypt and sign your texts, files and more.
- Cross-platform: Native support for Windows, macOS and Linux.
- Profiles: Keep separate sets of keys and settings, and switch between them.
- Portable: Run from a USB drive, or carry a profile in one encrypted file.
- Dual-engine: Switch freely between the mature GnuPG and the Rust rPGP backend.
- Future-ready: Modern algorithms, including post-quantum keys.
- Privacy-focused: Using multiple approaches to enhance safety.
