🔐 How it works When an incorrect answer is entered, instead of decrypting anything, the system launches an infinite loop of AI-generated questions from a secure local base, creating the illusion of progress without touching real data. Thanks to its unique structure (combining answer1 + file_hash and an additional "payload"), this method resembles split-knowledge schemes but has no direct analogs among common solutions. With properly chosen answers (strong passwords), the method offers a high level of cryptographic security and additional features, such as plausible deniability by removing the archive's comment.
