## Current OpenPGP security choices in OpenKeychain
## Keyserver Security
* All pre-configured keyservers use HKPS
* The default keyserver is hkps://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net using a pinned certificate (can be found in assets)
* When updating a key from a keyserver, the fingerprint of the downloaded key is checked to match the fingerprint of the existing key
## Current OpenPGP security choices in OpenKeychain
* We never generate v3 signatures, always v4
* We do not import v3 keys (https://github.com/coruus/cooperpair/tree/master/keysteak)
* If a v4 key is imported with a long key id that already exists in the database, the import is canceled. (see https://github.com/coruus/cooperpair/tree/master/pgpv4 for test keys)
