Does Halite do PGP?
I'm trying to find a PHP package that will handle PGP encryption/decryption. Halite keeps coming up but I can't tell from searching if it handles PGP. If it doesn't, can you recommend a PHP package that does? Thanks!

Weekly "ask anything" thread
One of the Golden Rules of Computing is "Never roll your own Crypto" (without a PhD in Cryptography). If you need to encrypt something at rest I'd recommend the really very excellent Halite Library.

Excellent job! I've been using the https://github.com/paragonie/halite library on top of Sodium just so I don't have to re-work everything out, but this is going to be nice for cases when including third party libraries isn't possible!
