Over the last decade we meticulously taught ourselves how to collect, store, and process big data. Now, the next challenge is to get rid of this data.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), with its sweeping mandates for protecting personal data, was a wake-up call for businesses across the board that they needed to exercise greater control over many aspects of their data processing practices. The California Consumer Privacy Act followed suit, and there is a high probability that other upcoming privacy laws around the world will likely continue the trend.
Regulations around how data is used, data retention time frames, and data subjects' right to be forgotten all necessitate particular attention to data destruction. In the good old days, incinerating backup tapes or shredding a few hard drives would have solved the problem. Today, we have a bigger challenge on our hands.

Nuke :
Kodachi nuke is a self destructing LUKSs partition. You can use it on Kodachi, but only if Kodachi is installed and encrypted. What it does : it will encrypt your Kodachi with its own keys so you will have two passwords the one you chose during Kodachi installation and the new nuke password. You will continue to use your first Kodachi password but once you are forced to open the system all you have to do is enter the nuke password and system will be completely destroyed ! no way to decrypt it even with your first password. So basically with nuke password you are commanding Kodachi to kill itself by destroying the encryption headers.
