I want to encrypt a code I wrote. After a quick search, I have found recommendation on GPG.

Is encrypting code with GPG common and standard? I have read that it is supposed to be for e-mails. If not GPG, what should I use?

    Are you talking about protecting an archive of your source code or encrypting the binary? If you're talking about the binary you're headed the wrong direction. :) – David Hoelzer May 20 '15 at 13:43

You can use GPG for signing, encrypting, and decrypting texts, e-mails, files, directories, and whole disk.

But the common way to secure your code is code obfuscation and not encryption.

Obfuscation creates ambiguous code, which makes reverse engineering difficult.

You can use spacial obfuscator for your programming language which is a programming tool that is used to transform readable code into ambiguous code without affecting code functionality.
