Secure Storage And Megakey Recovery
Understand IronClad Vault setup, AES-256-GCM storage, Argon2id, Megakey recovery, clearance levels, and Sentinel server mode.
The problem
I need sensitive files encrypted locally with role-based access and a recoverable emergency path.
Operator approach
Start with the documented workflow for the tool, collect evidence, and keep the next step visible before changing settings, blocking traffic, unlocking storage, or transferring sensitive files.
First steps
- Create the admin account
- Save recovery_megakey.bin to offline physical storage
- Classify files as Public, Internal, Secret, or Top Secret
- Test Mega-Recovery or Sentinel unlock before production use
