"Using PGP Encryption with Cerberus FTP Server: Features and Configuration

While Cerberus FTP Server does not directly support PGP encryption for files, you can leverage certain features within Cerberus to incorporate PGP encryption:

1. Automatic Decryption: Cerberus allows for the automatic decryption of files received and encrypted with PGP. For instance, files dropped by customers in a shared location can be automatically decrypted.

2. File Transfer Events: You can create a file transfer event, coupled with a command line client like Open PGP, to decrypt a file whenever someone uploads it. Refer to our documentation on creating events for detailed instructions.

3. Options for PGP Usage with Cerberus: Cerberus FTP Server lacks a built-in PGP encryption function. Therefore, a third-party application must be employed before the transfer to encrypt the actual file. Cerberus does not endorse any specific third-party software for encryption. It solely handles the file transfer and does not participate in decrypting the file at its destination.

4. Generating/Configuring PGP Keys: Cerberus does not provide an option to create PGP keys within the software. You'll need to utilize a third-party tool, such as PGP Key Generator, for generating and configuring PGP keys.
