Emergency Key

I have a question regarding the Emergency Key for my 1Password account.                                                         Is the Emergency Key always the same ? , even if I make changes to my account?                                                                                             I recently received a new Emergency Kit, but it contains the same Key as before.

  • Hi ronen,

    Good question! Your Secret Key will say the same unless you choose to generate a new one. People typically only generate a new Secret Key if they have a particular security concern, like after a device is lost or stolen. I hope that puts your mind at ease. Let me know if you have any other questions!
