Design a recoverable wallet-key lifecycle without creating a master-key shortcut

How can the service recover from device loss or operator unavailability without introducing an ungoverned universal recovery secret?

Operational pain

Recovery designs can silently defeat tenant isolation when shards, wrapping keys, break-glass accounts, or backup media share the same uncontrolled root.

Trigger

A custody product adds recovery, inheritance, or enterprise administrator functions.

QNSI contribution

Connect the decision to a controlled security path

Use QNSI key metadata and policy boundaries to document recovery roles, wrapped-material locations, rotation conditions, and tenant-specific separation.

Decision artifact

A recovery trust map with separation-of-duty checks, rehearsal results, and residual single points of compromise.

What still requires validation

Independent reviewers must test reconstruction thresholds, deletion, regional failure, insider resistance, and customer agreements.

External problem context

Primary sources

These sources establish the external requirement or risk context. They do not endorse HEOSSI or prove that QNSI completed this scenario.

Evidence boundary

What this page does—and does not—prove

This is a product evaluation pattern, not a customer case study, certification, legal opinion, regulator endorsement, or claim that a production deployment completed the described work.
