SUBJECT: Managing the Risk of Time-Loss.

THE PARADOX

If security is too perfect, the user locks themselves out. If HoloSec requires the exact minute of creation, how do you remember it for 500 files?

THE LOCAL VAULT

HoloSec maintains an encrypted SQLite database (`holosec_vault.db`) on the local machine. This acts as your "Keyring." It records the Time Coordinate for every file you lock. When you open the app, it checks this vault and auto-fills the time.

THE OFF-SITE BACKUP

HoloSec includes an Export Vault function. This dumps your keys into a portable file. We recommend:

  1. Exporting the Vault weekly.
  2. Storing it on an air-gapped USB drive.
  3. Printing the physical "Time Coordinates" for critical documents (Paper Backup).

If your computer is destroyed, you reinstall HoloSec on a new machine, import the Vault, and regain access. Without the Vault (or paper backup), the data is mathematically unrecoverable.
