Re: Offsite confidential data storage?

[Tom Ritter <tom () ritter vg>]

Do you have servers in a data center?  How about printing the key onto
a sheet of paper or onto a USB key, putting it in a small lockbox, and
then locking it into your cage at the Data Center?  The only people
with access will be the people with access to the servers.  And the
data center has all the fancy several-factor authentication with
mantraps and all that good stuff.
