A physical Recovery Kit for the day your device is gone.
Strong encryption creates a real recovery problem: if you lose your device and keys, nobody should be able to recover the vault for you. Krypt solves that by generating a Recovery Kit you can print and store with vital documents.
The kit contains Rescue Keys and QR codes for real vault recovery. Backups created before a Recovery Kit rotation still require the old kit; future backups require the new one.
Why recovery matters for zero-knowledge apps
A zero-knowledge vault should not have a company-side backdoor. That means recovery has to be planned before disaster happens.
No server-side rescue
Krypt is designed so your unencrypted vault data and keys are not available to Krypt.
Printable backup plan
Store the Recovery Kit physically with passports, birth certificates, or other vital records.
Vault-specific keys
Vault A and Vault B each have their own recovery material.
QR-assisted restore
High-density QR codes make recovery faster and reduce manual typing risk.
Encrypted backup ZIP
Export includes encrypted vault data and metadata needed for restoration.
Rotation support
Real-vault users can rotate the Recovery Kit after setup when recovery material needs replacement.
Cloud account recovery
Cloud recovery can be convenient, but it depends on account access and provider systems.
Krypt Recovery Kit
Krypt recovery is designed around an encrypted export and user-held recovery material.
