Thorsten Thielen's GnuPG public key

As nearly all spam and virus mails these days are using fake sender addresses I want to remind everybody that I always sign the mails I write with my GPG key. If you receive a mail without a valid OpenPGP signature from me, you can be pretty sure that this mail does not come from me. You've been warned... :-)

Public key

Last updated 2010-05-07: Revoked two obsolete UIDs.

As the key has become a little larger by now, I don't display it on this page anymore but offer my GnuPG public key as a textfile for download.

Another option is using gpg --recv-keys 919168E0 --keyserver blackhole.pca.dfn.de to download my key from the blackhole keyserver (of course you should be able to also use any other keyserver you like).

Fingerprint information

Attention: e-Mail addresses mangled to avoid spam.

Command gpg --fingerprint 919168E0 produced:

More information about GPG (Gnu Privacy Guard) and various other information and links concerning security/privacy can be found under www.gnupg.org.

Of particular interest I found www.diceware.com which offers a method to easily create strong, secure and easy to remember passphrases as well as lots of background information about passphrases in general.
