I've heard it mentioned before that some versions of PGP (probably the
8.x and 9.x families) have a system where a message can be decrypted by
any n out of m keys used in conjunction. Is this true, and how is it
implemented? One rather cumbersome method that I can think of is
(working backwards):
- - Any of the M keys can decrypt the first of N layers
- - Any other key can decrypt the next layer
- - ...
- - Any key not used yet can decrypt the next layer
- - ...
Is this anywhere even close, or does it (or would it) use a completely
different system?
