PGP (which stands for Pretty Good Privacy) is one of the top players in the field of data encryption. With solutions mainly targeted to enterprises, the company has become the biggest provider of encryption solutions world wide.
Few people know that PGP also offers some interesting solutions for the consumer and small business space. Knowledge of how to activate and implement PGP’s many features, however, has mainly stayed within the circles of system administrators and IT professionals.
Thanks to a book we’ve recently came across, consumers and small business administrators can learn the tricks of PGP without a Master in Computer Science.
In his book PGP: Pretty Good Privacy – a true classic from the well-known O’Reilly series – Simson Garfinkel shows us how to use PGP in an everyday environment. With tips and tricks on the many features PGP has to offer, his book is a great resource and will enable you to fully set up your own complete data encryption environment. Garfinkel refers to components that are freely available on the PGP website, revealing the secrets of how to set up the application.
The book is well written and easy-to-understand. In addition to a technical description on how to set up PGP, it also gives you a great insight and explanation of encryption and privacy protection in general.
PGP: Pretty Good Privacy sells for $27.26 on eCampus.com and is today’s recommendation for those who are interested in finding out more about encryption and PGP.
