# FLOShamir
# FLO Secret
This app let you save encrypted secret in the FLO blockchain and produces a number of keys that must be combined to be able to decrypt the secret.
A shared secret is a way of splitting a secret into n in keys such that m out of n keys are required to decrypt the message. Built using Shamir's shared secret algorithm, this app stores the encrypted secret message on blockchain and splits the key into n shares and any of the m share holders can decrypt the message.
Storing secrets on the blockchain makes sure that the file can't be altered and is accessible from anywhere.Also allowing us to use shared secret algorithm for large messages.
