4.5.9 Destruction
Destruction refers to the permanent
removal of a key or certificate that you no longer need. This is
accomplished by destroying the private key and any certificates. In
the case of public keys, they tend to be difficult to destroy since
they are sometimes passed around indiscriminately (Google’s Usenet
archives are probably full of them). However, if the private key is
destroyed, it is not necessary to destroy all copies of the public key,
since, due to the way asymmetric cryptography works, no compromise of
information will be possible without the other half of the key pair.
