Supported PGP clients

Supported PGP clients - AWS Transfer Family

The following clients have been tested with Transfer Family and can be used to generate PGP keys, and to encrypt files that you intend to decrypt with a workflow.

  • Gpg4win + Kleopatra.

    Note

    When you select Sign / Encrypt Files, make sure to clear the selection for Sign as: we do not currently support signing for encrypted files.

    The Kleopatra options for signing and encrypting files. The option for Sign as is cleared, and the option for Encrypt for me is selected.

    If you sign the encrypted file and attempt to upload it to a Transfer Family server with a decryption workflow, you receive the following error:

    Encrypted file with signed message unsupported
  • Major GnuPG versions: 2.4, 2.3, 2.2, 2.0, and 1.4.

Note that other PGP clients might work as well, but only the clients mentioned here have been tested with Transfer Family.
