- otachack 7y agoFor sure, but does applying a password on pub-priv key creation encrypt it? Haven't tried it myself yet but may later when I'm back at my computer.
- mikorym 7y agoYes, if you use OpenSSL it will ask if you want to encrypt with a password. You can verify this by just opening the file in a text editor and you'll see that the contents are obfuscated via that password.
- eikenberry 7y agoBut they are encrypted and so are of no use to anyone.
