Using GPG you can encrypt (and decrypt) files that contain sensitive data, such as protected health information (PHI) regulated by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) privacy and security rules. For more on GPG, see the GNU Privacy Guard website. At Indiana University, GPG is installed as a command-line application in the default user environments on Big Red II, Carbonate, and Karst. To use GPG, you create a unique encryption key, and then use that key to encrypt and decrypt your files. If you need help using GPG on IU's research computing systems, contact the UITS Scientific Applications and Performance Tuning (SciAPT) team. On this page:
Creating an encryption key To create a unique key for encrypting and decrypting files with GPG:
- Make sure
gpg-agent is running; on the command line, enter:
gpg-agent -s --daemon --write-env-file --use-standard-socket You will see something like the following (in which username is your Network ID username and Machine is the name of the system): GPG_AGENT_INFO=/N/u/username/Machine/.gnupg/S.gpg-agent:22743:1; export GPG_AGENT_INFO; 这是gpg-agent没有运行的时候作的, 一般安装完之后会自动运行了,就不用这一步了,执行一下也没有关系,会给出提示gap-agen已经运行了.
- On the command line, enter:
- You will see something like the following (in which
username is your Network ID username and Machine is the name of the system):
gpg --gen-key gpg (GnuPG) 2.0.14; Copyright (C) 2009 Free Software Foundation, Inc. This is free software: you are free to change and redistribute it. There is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law. gpg: keyring `/N/u/username/Machine/.gnupg/secring.gpg' created gpg: keyring `/N/u/username/Machine/.gnupg/pubring.gpg' created Please select what kind of key you want: (1) RSA and RSA (default) (2) DSA and Elgamal (3) DSA (sign only) (4) RSA (sign only) Your selection? Enter 1 to select the default key.
- GPG will prompt you to choose a keysize (in bits). Enter
1024.
You will see: Requested keysize is 1024 bits Please specify how long the key should be valid. 0 = key does not expire = key expires in n days w = key expires in n weeks m = key expires in n months y = key expires in n years Key is valid for? (0) Enter a value to specify how long the key should remain valid (e.g., 2 for two days, 3w for three weeks, 10mfor 10 months, or 0 for no expiration date).
- GPG will prompt you to confirm the expiration date. If the correct date is displayed, enter
y.
- GPG will prompt for information it will use to construct a user ID to identify your key. At the prompts, enter your name, email address, and a comment.
- GPG will prompt you to confirm or correct your information. You'll see a prompt something like this:
- If the information displayed is correct, enter
o to accept the user ID. To correct errors or quit the process, enter the appropriate alternative ( n , c , e, or q ).
- If you accept the user ID, GPG will prompt you to enter and confirm a password. Afterward, GPG will begin generating your key. You'll see:
You selected this USER-ID: "Full Name (comment) <username@iu.edu>" Change (N)ame, (C)omment, (E)mail or (O)kay/(Q)uit? We need to generate a lot of random bytes. It is a good idea to perform some other action (type on the keyboard, move the mouse, utilize the disks) during the prime generation; this gives the random number generator a better chance to gain enough entropy. This process may take several minutes to complete. When it's finished, you will see something like: gpg: key 09D2B839 marked as ultimately trusted public and secret key created and signed. gpg: checking the trustdb gpg: 3 marginal(s) needed, 1 complete(s) needed, PGP trust model gpg: depth: 0 valid: 4 signed: 0 trust: 0-, 0q, 0n, 0m, 0f, 4u gpg: next trustdb check due at <expiration_date> pub 1024R/09D2B839 2013-06-25 [expires: <expiration_date>] Key fingerprint = 6AB2 7763 0378 9F7E 6242 77D5 F158 CDE5 09D2 B839 uid Full Name (comment) <username@indiana.edu> sub 1024R/7098E4C2 2013-06-25 [expires: <expiration_date>] You can now use the key (until it expires) to encrypt files in your account (for instructions, see the next section). 我执行2-9步的时候,只要求输入名字和邮箱, 而后会弹出对话框让输入密码,应该就是所谓的私钥. 而后就提示文件已经建立成功了以及文件所存的路径,是一个rev文件,打开会,里面存的是公钥. Back to top Encrypting a file To encrypt a file using a GPG key you created, on the command line, enter (replace user_id with the email address you specified when you created the key and my_file with the name of the file to encrypt): gpg -e -r user_id my_file GPG will create an encrypted version of the file you specified; the encrypted file will have a .gpg file extension (e.g., my_file.gpg). After confirming the encrypted version has been created, you can delete the original unencrypted file. 这里输入的user_id就是建立key的时候输入的邮箱. 建立出来的加密文件是原有的文件名加上.gpg Back to top Decrypting a file To decrypt a .gpg file (e.g., my_file.gpg), on the command line, enter: gpg my_file.gpg GPG will prompt you for the password associated with the key you used to encrypt the file. When you enter the correct password, GPG will recreate the original, unencrypted version of the file (e.g., my_file). This process does not delete or alter the encrypted version of the file (my_file.gpg). 执行这个命令的时候会弹出建立key的时候要求你输入的密码,这个应该就是所谓的私钥.
