Why don't you encrypt your password twice, give the resulting file or string to both of them, replicated twice or more ? And each one of them has the password

Why don't you encrypt your password twice, give the resulting file or string to both of them, replicated twice or more ?
And each one of them has the password for one of the two encryption layers ?
This way it won't get lost.
- jedberg 4y agoMy family isn't that technically savvy and would probably require help with the decryption, but I'd be dead.
- layer8 4y agoThere’s probably a way to low-tech it by printing half of each password glyph (with a suitably ambiguous design) on transparent slides that you need to overlay with each other to be able to read the password.
- hinata08 4y agooh, that's a good point, indeed. I didn't factor in the technical ability of my relatives. I guess I should.
- ska 4y ago> I guess I should. Not just technical ability, but state of mind etc. Anything needed quickly (not everyone will have such) should be straightforwardly accessible by someone who is both distracted and busy.
- hinata08 4y agoI used to sort my data into organised archives on USB HDDs, until I went to college. Then I found it time consuming and began to just dump home folders and SD cards onto SATA HDDs for back ups And now I haven't even done back ups since I began to work. Tagging some USB stuff would be the most straightforward for them, I guess. A bit like a "play me if I don't come back" VHS as seen in movies. And I would include the letters to unsubscribe to everything, and GDPR requests to delete my data as mentioned by the creator of the thread in >So I ask: do you have a procedure in place to grant or transfer access in case of death?
