Hi! I'm one of the Charm co-founders.
We actually issue a new Charm specific SSH key for you. We then allow you to link machines together with our `charm` account utility. The symmetric keys used to encrypt data are encrypted for each public key linked to your account so you can access your data from multiple machines.
- woodruffw 6y agoThanks for the explanation! Glad to hear you've thought out and handled the linking process. Just out of curiosity: have you seen or considered age[1] for the symmetric pair? I've used it on a few projects where cryptographic flexibility wasn't necessary. [1]: https://github.com/FiloSottile/age https://github.com/FiloSottile/age
- tobypadilla 6y agoWe actually ended up making our own encryption library that's based on age, it's called sasquatch (built by our team member muesli): https://github.com/muesli/sasquatch https://github.com/muesli/sasquatch
