PGP

This page explains when PGP-encrypted communication is appropriate and how it relates to the public keys published elsewhere on the site.

When to consider encryption

  • Security reports that include sensitive technical detail

  • Messages that contain private account, configuration, or rights-related information

  • Situations where plain email would expose more context than necessary

Before you send encrypted mail

Please make sure you are using the current published key and that you understand the limits of email metadata. Encryption can protect message content, but it does not hide every surrounding detail.

Reading Notes

Trust and policy pages are most useful when they can be read both individually and as part of a connected system. Specific pages handle narrow workflows, while the surrounding pages provide the context that explains why those workflows exist and how they fit together.
