The default type of key to generate is RSA which is good for most purposes. RSA is universally supported among SSH clients. Note that EdDSA performs much faster and provides the same level of security with significantly smaller keys. In general, though, for what you need to do, RSA encryption is …

Pickup allows you to place files for pickup in your course directories such that those files cannot be read by your students until they run this script. At that time an entry is logged showing the date, time, user and directory that was picked up. If your students attempt to kill the script (say, after it copies the files and before it logs that it has) that attempt will also be logged…
