\section{Authentication using OpenPGP\index{OpenPGP!Keys} keys}
\label{sec:pgp}

This authentication method is part of the certificate authentication
method in \gnutls{}. All the key exchange methods shown in \hyperref{figure}{figure }{}{fig:cert} are
available in OpenPGP authentication. The \gnutls{}'s implementation is based on the
\cite{TLSPGP} proposal.

See \ref{pgp:trust} on page \pageref{pgp:trust} for more information 
about the OpenPGP trust model. For a more detailed introduction to OpenPGP
and GnuPG see \cite{GPGH}.
