For encryption it acts as +a gpg-frontend (http://gnupg.org/). Its intend is to be used from an usb-stick, +running on Windows(TM) and Linux. Providing a mac-binary is on our TODO-list. + +Our aim is, to give anyone the possibility to send and receive secure encrypted +messages anywhere - on any computer out there, no matter if Microsoft Windows(TM) +or Linux is running on it. Therefore it's usage should be self-describing, and the +user-interface is kept as simple as possible. + +Of course gpg4usb is open source, as are included libs and binaries. + +OBTAINING +--------- +You can get prepacked zip-files from http://gpg4usb.cpunk.de/download.html . +For retrieving the source checkout http://cpunk.de/svn/src/ . + +HOWTO USE +--------- +1. Unzip gpg4usb.zip on your usb-stick. +2. start programm with start_windows.exe or start_linux (depending on your os) +3. import your private key and some public keys +4. enjoy portable encryption ;-) + +CONTACT +------- +If you have any questions and/or suggestions contact us at [email protected] - or feel free to meet us at [email protected] + +Our homepage is located at http://gpg4usb.cpunk.de . + +LICENSES +-------- +gpg4usb itself is licensed under the GPLv3 (see COPYING). + +There are some libraries and the gpg-binary included in the zip-file / a static +gpg-build which (may) have different licenses, for more information check +their homepages.
