Plugin Description
This plugin allows you to insert a “secure form” into your website through a simple shortocde. It is usefull when you need to receive sensitive data of any kind, establishing a “safe channel”.
The data is sent encrypted with your PGP public key.
Usage
Just fill in some plugin options:
- The destination email (your email)
- Your PGP public key
Once the shortcode is placed into a page or post, it will render a form with the following fields:
- Message
- Subject
- Name
- Email
How it works
The message field will be encrypted with your PGP public key and sent as an attachment in ASCII format to the destination email you have configured.
When creating the plugin logic I have made sure that the message field is never sent to the web server, the data is previously encrypted (on the fly) using OpenPGP.js library in the user who is browsing the website.
You will only be able to decrypt the content of the attached file if you have the PGP private key belonging to the public key with which the message was encrypted.
Remember that the purpose of the plugin is only to display a form on your website and encrypt the information that is sent through the “message” field. This plugin does not take care of decrypting the attached file, this task is left to each user in the way they want.
Some usage examples
- Receive secret messages
- Receiving passwords from clients or friends
- Reception of sensitive information
Requirements
In order to use this plugin you need to have or create a PGP key pair. If you don’t have your key pair generated you can browse the internet on how to generate it.
There are many ways to generate the key, each have a different impact on security.
TIP on generating PGP key pair
One of the best ways of generating your PGP key pair is using a computer witout Internet connection and using Tails OS.
