Claim 0:
1. A method comprising:
generating, by a secure executable container executed by a network device, a secure recovery container based on encrypting a user password into an encrypted target password using a secret regenerative key, and adding a one-time password seed and the encrypted target password into the secure recovery container;
causing secure storage, by the secure executable container, of the secure recovery container in the network device and in a recovery device having a trusted relationship with the network device;
generating, by the secure executable container in response to a recovery request, a one-time password using the one-time password seed, the one-time password required for retrieval of the encrypted target password from the recovery device;
executing, by the secure executable container, decryption on an input string into a decrypted recovery password based on the recovery request, the decryption of the input string based on the secret regenerative key;
decrypting the encrypted target password, by the secure executable container, into a decrypted target password based on the secret regenerative key, the encrypted target password retrieved by the secure executable container from the secure recovery container in the network device based on the recovery request; and
authorizing, by the secure executable container, a user to input a new user password that replaces the user password for updated secure access to the secure executable container in response to determining the decrypted recovery password matches at least a part of the decrypted target password.
