Hello passbolt team and thank you for the great work !

I see that Elliptic-curve keys are now the default for new users and it’s a great news !

Question : is there an assisted way to rotate an user key (without doing the whole stuff manually by recreating an user) that we could leverage both for rotating a (maybe compromised) key and migrating to new types of keys ?

Yes, it’s maybe similar to one question I’ve had for years now 😊 but it’s still something important missing from passbolt. Some of my users have their key for 6 years now, replicated on a lot of workstations and mobile devices.

Thanks !
