## Password-protected key envelope
66

7-
The password protected key envelope should be used, when the goal is to protect a symmetric key with
8-
a password, for example for locking a vault with a PIN/Password, for protecting exports with a
9-
password, etc. Internally, a KDF is used to protect against brute-forcing, but this is not exposed
10-
to the consumer. The consumer only provides a password and key.

Use the password protected key envelope to protect a symmetric key with a password. Examples include:

9+
- locking a vault with a PIN/Password
10+
- protecting exports with a password

Internally, the module uses a KDF to protect against brute-forcing, but it does not expose this to the consumer. The consumer only provides a password and key.
