How to use PGP to sign your DShield submission
We added PGP (actually GnuPG) support to DShield.org submissions. You can now submit signed and encrypted scripts if you have a valid PGP key in your DShield user profile. If the PGP key can not be verified, the system will fall back to UserID/email verification, or, failing that, will import the records anonymously.
Make sure you have added the complete key, including the header/footer
line
(-----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----)
to your user profile. Edit your user profile from the DShield login page. (Public
key only! Do not send us (or anybody else) your PGP private key!)
- MIT Distribution Center for PGP (Free versions.)
- PGP Security (Paid commercial versions.)
- GNU Privacy Guard (GnuPG) is an open
source implementation of PGP.
- Download GnuPG. UNIX, Linux and Windows.
- GnuPG documentation. Well some of it. You also have to read the README.TXT type files that are included with the package.
Send feedback to feedback@dshield.org.
PGP keys are currently transferred to the DShield importer keyring once an hour, so wait at least an hour before submitting after you make any changes to your key in your user profile.
Here is the public key for dshield@dshield.cirt.vt.edu.
