Description

@davidwhittington

Enabling FileVault is step one — this guide covers what comes next. Topics: institutional vs personal recovery keys, where to store the key securely (not on the encrypted machine), verifying the recovery key works before you need it, rotating keys after machine transfer or personnel change, checking recovery key status via fdesetup. Audit script already flags this as a recommended check.
