This is a nifty PGP tool that runs on a user's local machine/browser. Great for encrypting messages with out having to install a software program. Great for people who need to generate PGP keys to get secure communications to and from other PGP platforms. I set this up on my website to assist folks to get started using PGP. The install was a matter of installing and activating the plugin, add a page, enter a short code and done!
