Generate Key-Pair
HomeYou are generating an RSA 2048-bit key pair for secure encryption and decryption. Share the public key with anyone who needs to send you encrypted data, and keep the private key and passphrase secrets for decryption. The entire process is done in your client. The keys are not sent to the server.
This will be the name of the private and public key files.
As an extra security layer, you can set a password for decryption in case someone gains access to your private key. Don't share this with anyone.
Public Key
Safely share this key with whoever is encrypting the data that will be sent to you. If this file is intercepted, there are no safety issues.
Private Key
Don't share this file with anyone and store it safely. If this file is intercepted, generate new keys and don't transmit any previously encrypted data.
