GNU Privacy Guard as implementation of the OpenPGP standard
GNU Privacy Guard as implementation of the OpenPGP standard
In version v20253.9.0 we added OpenPGP as Destination option.
GnuPG is a complete and free implementation of the OpenPGP standard as defined by RFC4880 (also known as PGP). GnuPG allows you to encrypt and sign your data. GnuPG, also known as GPG.EXE, is a command line tool with features for easy integration with other applications.
This destination will use the Command Line named GPG.exe. Installation setup is available at gpg4win.org
We used version: Gpg4win 4.4.0 (Released: 2024-11-27)
After installation GPG.EXE will be availble under ‘C:\Program Files (x86)\gnupg\bin’. Limagito x86 (32bit) and x64 (64bit) can both use this 32 bit version of GPG.EXE.
You need to point the ‘GnuPG GPG.EXE’ option to this file in your OpenPGP as Destination setup, please have a look at the following screenshot:
Don’t forget to adjust the Destination Directory too.
We added the following Encrypt – Decrypt Methods:
Encryption options:
Cipher Algorithm: IDEA, 3DES, CAST5, BLOWFISH, AES, AES192, AES256, TWOFISH, CAMELLIA128, CAMELLIA192, CAMELLIA256
Hash Algorithm: SHA1, RIPEMD160, SHA256, SHA384, SHA512, SHA224
Compression Algortihm: ZIP, ZLIB, BZIP2
Decryption Options:
Custom Options:
In this example we added –verbose as custom parameter to get detailed logging.

How to verify the pgp signature during decryption
How to verify the pgp signature during decryption
Q: I use PGP decryption in some rules and I need to activate the signature checking. Can you tell me if this is available and how to do it ?
A: We added this option in v2024.10.19.0
PGP Decryption, Added Verify Signature option (v2024.10.19.0) [+]
We added some screenshots in this blog article to get you started.
We used a Windows Folder as Destination:
We enabled ‘Enable Encrypt – Decrypt’ and selected ‘Decrypt Files’. As Encryption Algorithm we chose ‘PGP (Pretty Good Privacy)’.
Under the PGP tab we:
Added our Private Key file (and password) to decrypt the received files. The files we received were encrypted by a third party using our corresponding public key.
Added the Public Key file we received, from this third party, to check the signature. The files we received were signed by the third party using their private key file.
Enabled the ‘Verify Signature (Decryption)’ option.
Important: When ‘Verify Signature’ is enabled then all files must have a valid signature. Also files without a signature will not be allowed (error).
RunTime log example of files with an invalid signature:
