+title: KeyPackage Functionality
+sidebar:
+ label: KeyPackage
+---
+
+## Overview
+
+The KeyPackage is a feature designed to securely package and transfer key data
+between different devices. It encapsulates both the public and private keys of
+multiple key pairs, ensuring that users can maintain cryptographic functionality
+across various platforms. This document outlines the process of creating,
+exporting, and safely transferring a KeyPackage.
+
+## Creating a KeyPackage
+
+
+
+## Exporting the KeyPackage
+
+After configuring the export settings:
+
+1. Click on the 'OK' button to create the KeyPackage.
+2. The interface will generate two files:
+ - A `.gpgpack` file containing the packaged keys.
+ - A `.key` file which should be kept confidential and deleted after the transfer is complete.
+
+## Security Notice
+
+When the KeyPackage is successfully created, a message will inform you that the
+package is protected with encryption algorithms (e.g., AES-256-ECB) and is safe
+to transfer. However, it emphasizes that the key file must not be disclosed
+under any circumstances. Users are advised to delete the KeyPackage file and the
+key file as soon as possible after the transfer is complete.
+
+## Transferring the KeyPackage
+
+To transfer the KeyPackage:
+
+1. Use a secure transfer method to move the `.gpgpack` file to the target
+ device. This could be through a secured network connection, encrypted email,
+ or a physical device like a USB drive, which should be encrypted as well.
+2. Once transferred, import the KeyPackage into the key management tool on the
+ target device using the passphrase set during the creation process.
+
+## After Transfer: Importing and Verifying
+
+
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- Always ensure that you are transferring key data over a secure channel.
+- Keep the passphrase strong and confidential.
+- Delete the KeyPackage files from all devices and any intermediaries (like
+ email servers or cloud storage) after the transfer is complete to prevent
+ unauthorized access.
+
+## Conclusion
+
+The KeyPackage feature streamlines the process of transferring key data between
+devices while maintaining high security standards. By following the steps
+outlined in this document, users can effectively manage their cryptographic keys
+across multiple platforms.
