Sharded secrets... you only have one part of a key or keys needed to decrypt some data so even extracting that from you by torture will not suffice. Of course this isn't always practical.
- maxaf 7y ago“They” (whoever they are) can torture more than one person at a time.
- gruez 7y agoPresumably the other key holders are in a different jurisdiction.
- bluGill 7y agoThe trick is to ensure you are never near all the people who know the secret when there is the possibility of trouble. That makes kidnapping everyone harder. Of course if you really worry about such things you shouldn't be trusting the other people you are working with either...
