Who are the escrow agencies?..

Answer / Swami Saran

Escrow agencies are third-party intermediaries that hold the private keys for encrypted communications on behalf of users. They can be used in situations where key recovery is necessary, such as in digital rights management or when a user loses access to their own private key. The escrow agency can then decrypt the messages if necessary.
