If you see filename.xxx Good Signature, you have authenticated the file!

If you see filename.xxx Unknown Signature, you have not authenticated the file. Either you did not download the entire file, forgot to import the public PGP key before checking the signature, imported the wrong public PGP key or the signature is wrong or forged.

Authenticate software (Real Life Example)

Here is a real life example using a few demonstration files from my website

Make sure you are connected to the internet, and then open the Tor Browser (Accessories > Internet > Tor Browser)

Go to https://howtobeanonymousonline.info/pgpkey/

Right-click 'Anna M Eydie Public PGP Key', and then select Save Link As

Click Save to save annameydie.asc. Any location will do

Now, go to https://howtobeanonymousonline.info/sigtest/

Right-click 'Some Random File', and then select Save Link As

Click Save to save some_random_file.zip. Any location will do

On the same web page, right-click 'Some Random File Signature', and then select Save Link As

Click Save to save some_random_file.zip.sig. You must save it to the same location as some_random_file.zip

You can close or minimize the Tor Browser

Using the File Manager (Applications > Accessories > Files), navigate to the location of annameydie.asc

Right-click annameydie.asc, and then select Open With Import Key. A 'Key Imported' message will display in the upper right corner of Tails

Now, navigate to the location of some_random_file.zip and some_random_file.zip.sig

Right-click some_random_file.zip.sig, and then select Open With Verify Signature

A 'some_random_file.zip.sig: Good Signature' message will display in the upper right corner of Tails
