- > It then displays a checksum for the key.
- >
- > Since the key is not displayed on the screen as you type it,
- > the checksum is a way for you to be confidant of having
- > entered the same key each time you encrypt your data.
- >
- > When encrypting, note the checksum of the key you enter.
- > (Cautious people enter the key twice to be sure of the checksum.)

- > Invoking Krypto a second time with the same key decrypts.
- > When decrypting, make sure the checksum for the key is the same

- > If you cannot exactly reproduce the key used for encryption,

- > Any modification to an encrypted file will render it unrecoverable.
