Each key pair consists of a private key and a public key that are
mathematically related.

Each user shares their public key with other people, but keeps their
private key to themself and protects it with a passphrase.

A signature is made with your own private key, which you need the
passphrase to use. The person verifying your signature needs only your
public key and does not need your passphrase.

To encrypt a file (or a message) to me, you need only my public key
and you do not need a passphrase. To decrypt the file, I need my
private key, which I need my passphrase to use.
