Title
Cryptographic Key Management and Recovery using Secret Sharing
Goal
Description
Develop an application for securely managing cryptographic keys throughout their lifecycle, including generation, storage, activation, rotation, expiration, and recovery. To avoid dependence on a single recovery secret, the project should use threshold secret sharing so that a minimum number of authorized custodians must cooperate to recover a protected key.
