The OpenPGP module is used to encrypt/decrypt and sign/verify PGP messages.

Syntax

IPWorksEncrypt.Openpgp

Remarks

The OpenPGP class supports encrypting/decrypting and signing/verifying OpenPGP messages in the format specified by RFC 4880.

The Encrypt, Sign, and SignAndEncrypt methods are used to create a message to be sent to your partner. You can additionally create messages bound for multiple recipients with different keys, simultaneously encrypt and compress with the most popular compression algorithms, and control other aspects such as the encrypting algorithm to use.

When a message is received, the Decrypt, VerifySignature, and DecryptAndVerifySignature methods are used to process the incoming message.

The Key* properties specify the key (with private key) used to sign and decrypt.

The SignerKey* properties specify the key used to verify a signature.

The RecipientKey* properties specify the key used to encrypt.

Input and Output Properties

The class will determine the source and destination of the input and output based on which properties are set.

The order in which the input properties are checked is as follows:

• InputFile
• InputMessage

When a valid source is found the search stops. The order in which the output properties are checked is as follows:

• OutputFile
• OutputMessage: The output data is written to this property if no other destination is specified.

If multiple keys are specified the preferred encryption algorithm and compression method from the last key is used. The EncryptingAlgorithm and CompressionMethod properties are ignored.

When Sign is called the class will read the preferred MAC algorithm and compression method from the private key specified in the Key* properties. If multiple keys are specified the preferred MAC algorithm and compression method from the last key is used. The SigningAlgorithm and CompressionMethod properties are ignored.

The list below defines available options.

Remarks

This method attempts to both decrypt and verify the signature of the message. All of the properties affected by calling the Decrypt and VerifySignature methods are affected in the same manner.

This method may be used when the data is signed, encrypted, or signed and encrypted. For instance, if the data is encrypted but not signed you may still use this method and the class will perform the decryption without error.

The message will be decrypted using the keys specified in the Key* properties. Before decryption begins the class will fire the RecipientInfo event with information about the encrypted message, including the key used to encrypt the message. Within this event you may use the available information to load the correct key into Keys.

The message will be verified using the keys specified in the SignerKey* properties. Before verification begins the class will fire the SignatureInfo event with information about the signature including the key used to sign the message. Within this event you may use the information available to load the correct key into the SignerKey* properties.

By default, if the signature is not valid the class . The configuration setting RequireValidSignature may be set to False to disable this requirement. When RequireValidSignature is set to False, the Status parameter of the VerificationStatus event should be checked to determine the result of the operation.

NOTE: This method does not attempt to check the validity of the signing key itself.
