Hi all,
I was thinking, instead of just using a password to secure crypto keys /
SQLCipher DBs, we could also use an NFC tag as a second password
component. I don't know enough about NFC and questions remain:
* how to create a tag cheaply and securely
* how to protect the tag from being read by someone in physical proximity
It seems like this would at least solve the case where someone snatches
the phone.
