Digital Security: Much maligned for its complicated setup and use, PGP encryption nonetheless continues to be the best way to send confidential information by email. In this session we will get set up with PGP encryption and start to exchange encrypted email. We will discuss the basics of public key cryptography, key management, and look at some of the recent advances in usability that will hopefully lead to more widespread adoption of email encryption.. Attendants MUST bring their computers to get in: This is a hands-on workshop.
