Following up on the announcement of the 4th OpenPGP Email Summit , this article will provide a brief summary of our experience at the event. We interacted with a large number of people running various OpenPGP-based projects, academics, and other individuals with a keen awareness of email security and privacy. As planned, the 4th OpenPGP Email Summit featured plenary talks, open sessions (also called working groups), a key signing party, food and drinks, and of course, lots of fun.

Below is a summary of the various points that armenia whatsapp number data 5 million were covered during the plenary talks and open sessions. Much of the content is extremely technical in nature, and thus will most likely only be of interest to those developing software related to OpenPGP email.

4th OpenPGP Email Summit Plenary Talks and Open Sessions (20-10-2018) – Day 1



OpenPGP: Phil Zimmermann's keynote address
– OpenPGP needs a lot of improvements. Let’s make them happen.
– Old/obsolete cryptographic primitives need to be ditched and modern, well-vetted, patent-free designs/algorithms should be used instead in future versions of the protocol (TLS 1.3 can be an example).
– Chacha20, Poly1305 and AES are just a few good algorithms (I don’t really like Galois/Counter modes though).
