# Secret Border
> A safe Nostr identity generator.
## Why use Secret Border?
This tool is an easy and safe way to create your personal identity on [Nostr](https://nostr.com/) protocol. Using it you can generate a pair of Nostr keys and backup them in a safe way.
## What are the security guarantees that Secret Border supply?

- It doesn't save your secret anywhere (**unless you request it**).
- You can backup your secret in an encrypted file with a password (that you specify).
- Code full open source.
- It can backup secret in a encrypted file using **AES256**.
- Allow user to add entropy at the generate key process.
