Abstract
A system for recovery of data access of a locked secure storage device can comprise a keystore module and an authorization module. The keystore module may be configured to allow access to a master file system comprising a user encryption key for data stored within the locked secure storage device based on a master code. The authorization module may be configured to receive the administrator code, authenticate the administrator code, decode the master code, and reset a lockout parameter of the locked secure storage device.
