In this section of the site, you will find the details of my Public PGP key — a fundamental tool for ensuring transparency, authenticity, and security in communications and Software Distribution. My Digital Identity can be verified through this key, which acts as a Cryptographic Signature of my online activity and a reliable way to confirm that every Software Package distributed truly originates from me.
All my software is digitally signed using both secure HASH Algorithms and PGP Signatures, ensuring the integrity and authenticity of each file. The security of my Software Packages is an absolute priority: every line of code, every binary, every update is designed to be safe, trustworthy, and verifiable. I strongly encourage everyone who downloads or uses my software to verify the signatures in order to ensure maximum protection!

Below you will find the complete details of my Public PGP key, as well as all the information related to my Digital Identity. My identity can be confirmed through various services and platforms that have verified and authenticated my Digital Signature, making my cryptographic profile publicly accessible. This web of trust ensures that any communication originating from me is genuine, and that the software I distribute is indeed created and signed by myself. I encourage anyone who wishes to communicate with me securely or verify the authenticity of my releases to consult the provided references and make use of the PGP Key listed here.

My Digital Identity is verifiable through Keybase, a modern, decentralized cryptographic platform widely recognized for its reliability in managing PGP Keys and authenticated identities.
My Public Keybase profile is available at:
Keybase securely links my name, email address, public accounts (including GitHub, Twitter, and others), and my PGP key — making impersonation or tampering virtually impossible.
Through this profile, you can:
- Verify my Public Key with my fingerprint
- Download the key in
.asc
format - Compare my verified digital identity with signed accounts
- Send me encrypted, signed, and authenticated messages
Using Keybase adds another layer of Cryptographic Trust to my online activity, making every communication and software distribution more transparent and verifiable. It is a powerful tool to strengthen trust between developer and user, fully embracing the principles of Digital Freedom, Privacy, and Information Security.
Connect with Me on Keybase for Secure Communication and Collaboration

You can find me on Keybase under the username mariano28. Keybase provides a secure environment for encrypted messaging, identity verification, and file sharing.
Using Keybase allows us to:
- Verify my Digital Identity through cryptographic signatures.
- Exchange messages and files with end-to-end encryption.
- Collaborate on Open Source projects with enhanced security.
- Ensure the integrity and authenticity of software releases and communications.


My Public PGP Key is available also on several international Keyservers, including:
This certification allows anyone to verify my Digital Identity, exchange signed or encrypted messages, and contribute with confidence to my Open Source Projects. Using encryption is a sign of respect for freedom, privacy, and mutual trust!
I digitally sign every piece of software I release using PGP and cryptographic HASH Algorithms (e.g., SHA256) to ensure Package Integrity. In addition to SourceForge, which hosts my Software Projects along with their Source Code, you can find my Custom Erase Project and its corresponding Source Code in my Official Repository:
If you wish to contact me securely or verify the authenticity of my releases, feel free to use my published key. Security, transparency, and traceability are core values of my work!

My articles that include source code are personally signed only by means of HASH strings. This is because the risk of external tampering is significantly lower compared to Packaged Software Projects, which often involve complex architectures and extensive codebases. Executable distributions or complete software bundles may contain compiled binaries, embedded resources, or third-party dependencies—factors that increase the Attack Surface and the need for strong digital signatures—whereas articles with Source Code generally present a reduced vulnerability profile.
In such cases, a carefully computed Cryptographic HASH (such as SHA-256) is sufficient to guarantee file integrity and authenticity. The hash uniquely represents the file content; even a single altered byte results in a completely different digest. Therefore, I publish these hashes alongside my articles to enable readers and developers to verify that the material received matches the original content I authored, unaltered and intact.
However, when the project complexity increases—especially with compiled applications or multi-file distributions—I always apply my Digital PGP Signature to provide a stronger chain of trust and tamper-proof assurance. Security, authenticity, and transparency remain the foundation of my digital work!
