A public key is a cryptographic key that is used to encrypt data or verify digital signatures. Public keys are made available to the public, while the corresponding private key is kept secret.

In cryptography, a public key is a large numerical value that is used to encrypt data. The key can be generated by a software program, but more often, it is provided by a trusted, designated authority and made available to everyone through a publicly accessible repository or directory.
