Just in case you lose your key, or it gets compromised, you want to generate a certificate and choose to save it in a safe place on your computer for now (please refer to step 6.C for how to best store your revocation cerficate safely). This step is essential for your email self-defense, as you'll learn more about in Section 5.

# Copy your keyID gnupg --list-key [your@email] will list your public ("pub") key information, including your keyID, which is a unique list of numbers and letters. Copy this keyID, so you can use it in the following command.

-

# Generate a revocation certificate: gpg --gen-revoke --output revoke.asc [keyID] [keyID]

+

# Generate a revocation certificate: gpg --gen-revoke --output revoke.asc [keyID]

# It will prompt you to give a reason for revocation, we recommend to use 1 "key has been compromised"

# You don't have to fill in a reason, but you can, then press enter for an empty line, and comfirm your selection.
