Gpg4win [SEP] operating system
Gpg4win
Gpg4win is an email and file encryption package for most versions of Microsoft Windows, which uses GnuPG public-key cryptography for data encryption and digital signatures.
The original creation of Gpg4win was supported by Germany's Federal Office for Information Security, however Gpg4win and all included tools are free and open source software, and it is typically the non-proprietary option for privacy recommended to Windows users.
