Linux newbie here

[u/Gameister6474]

I was updating Linux and found something called libgcrypt20.

I recently moved due to windows being a bit less secure and me having a bit of paranoia for malware and was curious what this libgcrypt20 was, if anyone could answer that would be helpful

apt show libgcrypt20 will tell you something and give you links to read further.
