Encrypted Export 1pex
Hi,
I‘m using 1PW Familie account and I‘m asking myself what will be happen in case that there will be some data loss e.g. on your servers? I know everything is secure and encrypted on your server...

Hi 1P_Dave ,
thanks for reply.
I think you know your infrastructure better than me, but I have scenarios in mind like vault data will be wiped out on your servers and due to that also the local cached data will be synced with the empty server vault and overwritten. Not sure if this is possible or if on server side everything is a closed and encrypted data blob which can not cause such kind of “overwrite scenario” by deletion of it due to a security breach?!
Yesterday I decided for me to export my data via the unencrypted 1pux format and store it on an encrypted usb stick together with my local emergency kit. Of course I totally trust in your infrastructure, but with this approach I feel more safe.
Of course the 1pex format would be easier to handle , but it should make no difference to an encrypted usb stick.
One last question about item history: Is it possible to perform the restore for each field / complete item or only for the password field? If I remember correctly I only saw within the app the possibility to restore password history.
Regards
Finke
