[SAC] Backup of access file ?

[Regina Obe]

Depends where these plain text backups are kept.  If the backups are on a system only accessible to SAC admins, seems fine to be clear text.
If accessbile by many then backing up with master password, or just having  sys admins do a manual backup seems sufficient.

I imagine the file doesn't change all that often.
How does this change with your new password directory plan?  I assume it would just be a folder instead of a single file.

It looks to me that the master password file is not being backed up, please correct me if I'm wrong.

How do we want to deal with that information ?
Shall each primary admin autonomously taking a backup of that file ? Or should we consider it safe to include those files in a clear-text backup ? Or shall we just spread a "master password" to encrypt that file before backing it up ?

Ideas welcome.
