A word about the master decryption key:
The master decryption key is a key that can be used to decrypt user backups. This little feature
is often overlooked but it can be extremely valuable. In the event that a user loses or forgets his
or her decryption key, use of the master decryption key may be the only way to restore the
user’s data.
The user may choose to disable the master decryption key using an option in its client software.
Although this may be perceived as providing protection from inappropriate activities by the
backup service provider, it is also making recovery of data nearly impossible if user encryption
keys are lost or forgotten.
