As I understood, there is a private key related to Keyhotee ID, do I need to retrieve the private key each time I do an operation with Keyhotee?
Encryption of private key means need to provide the password each time of a operation/session, that reduce the easy of use, but if not, The risk could be very high if we must access private key very often, do Keyhotee have any good solution to this?
Besides, need to access private often means it is impossible to store the private key offline(cold storage), which is different with the case of Bitcoin, bitcoin need private key only when you decide to start a transaction, this is not very often.
And Bitcoin can easily tranfer coins in one wallet to another, but Keyhotee seems not easy to transfer the reputation and honer of one ID to another.
What should I do if my private key has potential risk to leak?
Here is a link from Chinese Forum asking the same question, refer:
keyhotee 发布在即,我有一个疑问。
就是keyhotee ID的私钥是否能够冷存储,而不影响每次的登录认证。
因为我始终担心私钥存储在联网的电脑上所面临的安全威胁。
私钥一旦泄漏,除了删除ID没有别的选择。而在连线电脑上,被木马入侵很难彻底杜绝。
不知道即将发布的keyhotee系统是否考虑了这个问题并给出了对策。
