Description

Provides Python bindings for manipulating storage volume encryption keys and storing them separately from encrypted volumes. It helps recovery and administration workflows handle forgotten passphrases or key escrow scenarios.

Administrators and security tools use it as a library. Volume keys are extremely sensitive, so restrict access, audit storage locations, and test recovery procedures before relying on them.
