To protect sensitive information stored on desktop operating systems, encryption is necessary rather than merely hiding documents in obscure folders, as anyone with access can find them.
On Linux, securing files via the command line using GnuPG allows users to encrypt sensitive documents effectively, safeguarding them from unauthorized access.
After encrypting a document with GnuPG on Linux, it's critical to delete the original file to prevent exposure of sensitive data.
To ensure better security, adjusting the GPG agent’s cache settings helps prevent unauthorized decryption of files.
