Securing the FOKS implementation

Once the FOKS system is no longer being actively used, it is wise to lock down FOKS with a passPhrase to keep it secure.

Set a passphrase for FOKS. Note the example below is using the foks cli.

 PS> foks passphrase set

DON'T LOSE YOUR PASSPHRASE

A secure passphrase can be generated as follows:

 PS> FoksApi SetRandomValue

The generated random value is copied to the clipboard.

Enter the following command to lock the FOKS implementation.

 PS> FoksApi Lock

On each execution of FoksApi, it will check if FOKS is locked and prompt for a passphrase to unlock.
