Description

General

Documentation: https://documentation.help/PuTTY/pubkey-puttygen.html
Summary: PuTTY is a free Windows Telnet and SSH client. It provides a quick and simple way to connect to remote hosts. By default, PuTTY does not support the native format for SSH private keys (.pem files), but it provides a tool called PuTTYgen to convert the keys in the desired format (.ppk files). This detector aims at catching those files.More details about cryptographic keys can be found in this FAQ.
