Zerodium PGP - ScorpionAssassin - Nov 12, 2025
I went to zerodium and all there was there was a pgp public key. Looked into it and I need a private key. How do I get that so I can get into zerodium? (Zerodium is a zero day market if you don’t know, but you probably do)

I don't actually, but a PGP public key is not used for authentication. Private keys are not things that are given out. What a public key is really for is encrypting messages.

This is a secure way to send messages / content to zerodium, such as PoC, exploits, ..., in order to ensure confidentiality. You can't have the private key, it's used to decrypt messages sent to Zerodium, and it's well protected otherwise it would be a major security concern.
You need their public key to make messages only readable from them, with extensions like OpenPGP used in the mail software Thunderbird.
