The Death Note
I just wanted to share how I handle my digital secrets when I die.
I have two close, tech savvy friends who are unlikely to lose their GPG keys. They are business partners as well.
I have two other, close friends who don’t know the first pair.
I periodically send out a “Death Note” to the latter pair of friends. In it is a complete list of my current passwords, passphrases, etc. The note is encrypted using the keys of the first pair.
Should I die, the second pair of friends will send out the Death Note to the first, and they will be able read my passwords, etc. This will allow them to access any of my business information (for continuity) as well as to assist my spouse with accessing any information she might need.
