Work vault, personal vault

One device, different contexts

Modern work and personal life often share hardware. A contractor uses the same laptop for a client deploy and a family budget. A founder keeps company credentials near personal tax files. A designer travels with both project secrets and passport scans.

Mixing the data feels convenient until something needs to be shared, backed up, deleted, or shown to another person. Then the question becomes uncomfortable: which part of this vault is actually relevant?

Separate vaults make boundaries visible

NT² supports the idea that one device can manage more than one vault. A work vault can hold client credentials, production keys, and project documents. A personal vault can hold bank details, identity documents, insurance files, and family notes.

The separation is practical:

• different display names in the vault picker;
• different vault identities;
• different backups and sync choices;
• different sharing context;
• no need to store contractor keys beside family records.

That boundary is not just organization. It is a privacy habit. If a client engagement ends, the work vault can be handled as work data. If a family backup moves to another device, it does not carry your client secrets with it.

The value is ordinary clarity

Good security often starts with a boring question: "What belongs together?"

NT² does not ask you to create a new online account for every context. It gives each vault its own local identity and encrypted storage. You decide which vault is unlocked, backed up, synced, shared, or retired.

For people whose lives cross work, travel, family, and finance on the same device, that clarity is the feature.
