passphrases per client device (laptop etc) bios/firmware disk encryption other passphrases backups keepass passwords per client device login/screen saver other passwords anything you want to access without your laptop so if you have two laptops, two backup disks, and 1 online account that you keep backups on, you'll need to remember 8 passphrases and 3 passwords. that 2xbios, 2xdisk, 2xbackupdisk, 1online-backupimage, 1keepass database and 2xlogin, 1account for online backups, since you might be restoring when thats the only thing left. even if you use the same one for all backups, your still looking at 6 passphrases. this is a simplified example compared to most of us. how do you deal with this? how do you train users to deal with this? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
