Abstract :
We created Mini PGP application which has the function as encryption/description and digital signatures. The other functions of PGP had been removed in the pursuit of facilitating everybody in checking its security. Asymmetry algorithm utilizes the RSA 4096 bit only while symmetry algorithm utilizes Twofish only. We use SHA256 as hash function. This paper shows the security analysis of mini PGP. Comprehensive analysis on PGP conventional version of Windows is highly complex due to very large amount of source code. The goodness of mini PGP is more secured against dictionary attack and spyware if compared with the conventional one. Some PGP for Windows has also the program code that is able to tap the keyboard typing.
