Encryption:
```console
$ ykman openpgp keys set-touch enc on
$ ykman openpgp keys set-touch dec on
```
**Note** Versions of YubiKey Manager before 5.1.0 use `enc` instead of `dec` for encryption.
Depending on how the YubiKey is going to be used, you may want to look at the policy options for each of these and adjust the above commands accordingly. They can be viewed with the following command:
```
$ ykman openpgp keys set-touch -h
Usage: ykman openpgp keys set-touch [OPTIONS] KEY POLICY

POLICY Touch policy to set (on, off, fixed, cached or cached-fixed).

$ ykman openpgp info
