Secret store strategy

We have 2 recommended methods to store 3 secret pieces of encrypted data.

• You can store each value in a different place. For example:
  • password 1 in Bitwarden
  • password 2 in a paper
  • encrypted string in an encrypted folder at Filen.
• The second way is to divide into 3 pairs of values, save them in 3 different places. For example:
  • Bitwarden: password 1 + password 2
  • Filen: password 1 + encrypted string
  • Paper: password 2 + encrypted string

With the first option, you need access in 3 different places to get enough decryption information. With the 2nd option, you only need to access 2 places to have enough decryption information. This is also the method that Ledger has recently tried to apply.
