Questions a buyer asks
What does a stolen credential yield?At most the three fragments in one domain. Six are needed, so nothing can be read.
What if a site is lost?Any one domain can be offline and six fragments remain, which is enough to rebuild.
Who can restore?Three of eight named authorizers must approve a restore.
Why two products?One deployment gives breach resilience (Valta Resilient) and a distributed recovery copy (Valta Air Gap).
