Almost done now. After I signed partner’s public key, that warring has gone.
I am using below command to encrypt file with my private key & partner’s public key & partner is using my private key & their public key to decrypt it but it’s getting fail. M I using anything wrong here. ./gpg --local-user 'MY USER’ --recipient partner_pubkey --encrypt --armor /tmp/test/data1.CSV Tried to use --sign which is asking passphrase which don’t want to use. Can we sign without passphrase & only with public/private key.

To resolve the issue with the assurance message, manually verify that the key belongs to the recipient (e.g. meet in person or call them and verify the fingerprint of their key) and then sign the key using GnuPG. (gpg --sign-key 0xKEYID) In GnuPG you vouch that a particular public key belongs to a person (or organization) by signing their public key. This signature can be local or published publicly. "Trust" in GnuPG is different, and reflects how much you trust the other key to correctly vouch for the identity of others. If you set their key as fully trusted, keys that are signed by that key are treated by your copy of GnuPG with the same level of assurance as if you signed them yourself. Typically this should only be reserved for people you know to always check the identity of other people thoroughly and correctly before signing their keys. The default is for trust to be set to "marginal". By combining signatures and trust, one forms a "web of trust": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_of_trust Cheers! -Pete ________________________________ This email is confidential and intended only for the use of the individual or entity named above and may contain information that is privileged.
