Asymmetric-Cipher

Description

This is an example of asymmetric cryptography in Python. It will allow you to encrypt a .txt file using the public key of the intended recipient, ensuring only they are able to decrypt it with their private key.

See this video for an explaination of asymmetric cryptography.

Usage

First install cryptography with: pip3 install cryptography

Download and run the script with:

git clone https://github.com/ChickeyX/Asymmetric-Cipher.git
cd ~/Asymmetric-Cipher
python3 cipher.py

The script is easy to use - you will be provided with instructions when you run the script.
