What is PGP?

PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) is encryption software that scrambles a message so that only the intended recipient can read it. Even if someone intercepts the email, they see unreadable ciphertext.

It works with a key pair:

  • Public key — shared openly (like the one above). Anyone uses it to lock a message for you.
  • Private key — kept secret by the owner. Only they can unlock messages encrypted to them.

Think of it as a padlock anyone can snap shut, but only you hold the key to open.

PGP can also sign messages — proving they genuinely came from a specific key holder, not an impersonator.


How to send us an encrypted message

Windows — Gpg4win / Kleopatra
  1. Download Gpg4win from gpg4win.org and install it (includes the Kleopatra GUI).
  2. Open Kleopatra. Click Import… and either paste the key block above or save it as a .asc file and open it.
  3. Compose your message in a plain text file or directly in an email client.
  4. In Kleopatra: Tools → Clipboard → Encrypt Clipboard. Choose [email protected] as recipient and click Next.
  5. Paste the resulting ciphertext block into your email and send it to [email protected].

Thunderbird users: install the Enigmail add-on (or use the built-in OpenPGP support in Thunderbird 78+) for seamless in-client encryption.

macOS — GPG Suite
  1. Download GPG Suite from gpgtools.org and install.
  2. Open GPG Keychain. Click Import and paste the key or open the .asc file.
  3. Compose your email in Apple Mail. GPG Suite adds a lock icon to the compose window — click it to encrypt before sending.
  4. Alternatively use the GPG Services menu (available in any app): select your text, right-click → Services → OpenPGP: Encrypt.
Linux — GnuPG (command line)

GnuPG is usually pre-installed. If not:

sudo apt install gnupg       # Debian / Ubuntu
sudo dnf install gnupg2      # Fedora / RHEL
  1. Save the key above to a file, e.g. nxtgn.asc, then import it:
    gpg --import nxtgn.asc
  2. Encrypt a message:
    echo "Your message here" | gpg --armor --encrypt --recipient [email protected]
  3. Copy the -----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE----- block and paste it into your email.

GUI users: Seahorse (GNOME), Kleopatra (KDE), or Thunderbird with built-in OpenPGP all work well.

Android — OpenKeychain
  1. Install OpenKeychain from the Google Play Store or F-Droid.
  2. Open OpenKeychain → Import Key → paste the key block.
  3. Use K-9 Mail or FairEmail as your email app — both integrate with OpenKeychain for one-tap encryption.
  4. Or inside OpenKeychain: tap Encrypt Text, type your message, choose our key as recipient, and copy the result into any email app.
iOS / iPadOS — PGPro
  1. Install PGPro (free, open source) from the App Store.
  2. Tap Keychain → + → Import from text → paste the key.
  3. Tap Encryption, type your message, select NxtGn.cc as recipient, and tap Encrypt.
  4. Copy the ciphertext and send it to [email protected] via your preferred email app.

Alternative: iPGMail (paid) offers Mail app integration via a share extension.


Not sure if your message was encrypted correctly? Just send it — the worst that can happen is we ask you to resend. We always reply from [email protected] and can sign our replies so you can verify authenticity.
