PGP Freeware The Most Advanced Protection for Data Available Forrest Stroud
The Most Advanced Protection for Data Currently Available
The result of PGP's focus on privacy and authenticity is the most advanced protection for your data currently available. While earlier versions of PGP used RSA to generate keys, the newer versions offer the option of creating keys based on the more sophisticated DSS/Diffie-Hellman technology.
Keys generated using the RSA technology max out at 1024-bit security, while the newer technology allows for up to 4096-bit security (the strength of the security is user-definable). As a gauge of the strength of PGP's security, a Web browser in comparison can only use a maximum of 128-bit security.
