Encrypt a message

This page encrypts text locally in your browser using my public OpenPGP key. It does not decrypt messages and it does not send anything by itself.

Use this page if you want to create encrypted text without installing separate software.

The downloaded key file and the fingerprint shown here should match. Outside verification of fingerprint can be performed at https://github.com/ARandomSoul.

Public key verification

This page fetches the public key from /files/simon-brainerd-public.asc and checks that its parsed fingerprint matches the expected fingerprint below before enabling encryption.

Expected fingerprint E614 8A51 4A04 6061 CDE0 DDC4 01B7 7273 06D4 5B19

Compose plaintext

The sender fields are optional. They are included inside the encrypted message body for context.

Encrypted output

Copy this armored text and send it through email, Signal, or another channel. Only the matching private key can decrypt it.
