7. Although you are technically done, please consider backing up the key. It happened to us all in the past. Loosing important data is devastating. Loosing key to open all your email communication can be even worse. Always have a backup stored safely offline, just in case.

Select option to backup your key to a file:

|

|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
When creating a file backup it is important to secure it with a good password. Otherwise, anyone who obtains access to the backed up key could potantially decrypt all your email communication. Don't overthink it though. If you forget your password to unlock your key, you will loose access to the key and thus communication in case you need to restore your key. Either keep the password somewhere safe (post-it sticker stuck on your computer screen is not recommended) for example a password manager or use something you are sure you will remember.
