# PGP **PGP (Pretty Good Privacy)** is a cryptography component that provides authentication and cryptographic privacy for data communication. ## Parameters Take a look at the configuration parameters of the component. Parameters supported by [Double Braces expressions](https://docs.digibee.com/documentation/connectors-and-triggers/double-braces/overview) are marked with `(DB)`.

Parameter	Description	Default value	Data type
Account	Sets the account to be used by the component. The account should be either Public or Private key.	N/A	String
Operation	Defines the operation type (Encrypt Fields, Decrypt Fields, Encrypt Payload, Decrypt Payload, Encrypt File, or Decrypt File).	Encrypt Fields	String
Fields	Name of the fields to be encrypted inside the JSON entry. The fields must be separated by a comma (e.g., param1, param2). This parameter is available only when Encrypt Fields or Decrypt Fields are selected in the Operation parameter.	parameter	String
Payload `(DB)`	Can be defined as a single value or by Double Braces to get and set a payload. This parameter is available only when Encrypt Payload or Decrypt Payload are selected in the Operation parameter.	N/A	String
Charset	Charset of the text.	UTF-8	String
File Name `(DB)`	Name of the file or full file path (i.e. tmp/processed/file.txt) to be encrypted/decrypted. This parameter supports Double Braces expressions and is available only when Encrypt File or Decrypt File are selected in the Operation parameter.	N/A	String
Output File Name `(DB)`	Name of the encrypted file to be generated. This parameter supports Double Braces expressions and is available only when Encrypt File or Decrypt File are selected in the Operation parameter.	N/A	String
Hexadecimal	If the option is active, the value to be verified/signed must be informed in hex format; otherwise, it will be signed or verified as base64.	True	Boolean
Armor	If the option is active, it will encrypt the messages in ASCII so they are sent in a standard format, such as email.	False	Boolean
Zip	If the option is active, it will zip the message before it gets encrypted.	False	Boolean
Integrity Check	If the option is active, it will check the message integrity.	True	Boolean
Fail On Error	If the option is active, the execution of the pipeline with an error will be interrupted; otherwise, the pipeline execution proceeds, but the result will show a false value for the “success” property.	False	Boolean
