Seahorse
Seahorse is a Gnome
front end for GnuPG - the Gnu Privacy Guard program. Its goal
is to provide an easy to use Key Management Tool, along with an easy to
use interface for encryption operations.
It
is a tool for secure communications and data storage. Data encryption
and digital signature creation can easily be performed through a GUI
and Key Management operations can easily be carried out through an
intuitive interface.
Additionally, Seahorse includes a Gedit
plugin, can handle files using Nautilus,
an applet for managing stuff put in the clipboard and an agent for
storing private passphrases, as well as a GnuPG
and OpenSSH
key manager.
