However, with each initial copy, you open yourself up to more attack vectors (each device will have a PIN, two devices offer 6 tries in total, 100 will offer 600). You should write it on a piece or paper, or get something like a crypto steel, and put it in a safe/vault that your wife (or the executor of your will/attorney) can access | |
