Create or Recover Keyphrase

A keyphrase secures your sign-in and adds encryption to your data. Using a recovery key ensures you never lose login access, keeping your sensitive info private and reachable.

Before you begin

A keyphrase is a secret, unique and memorable group of words used like a password to get into the Digital Footprint Manager. For example, "Ducks fly over 24-acres!"
If you forget your keyphrase, the only way to open the Digital Footprint Manager is to reset it using the recovery key.
If you lost or forgot your recovery key and need a new one, all content will be erased and you'll need to add it again.
