Lena isolated the rhythm. She fed the timing data into a Bayesian inference engine, reconstructing the most probable sequence of characters that fit the biological fingerprint. Baytion Keyboard Software

It was a feature designed for ergonomic studies, to detect repetitive strain injury patterns. But Lena had read a obscure white paper three years ago. She knew the real secret. The ledger opened

Nyx, arrogant in his skill, had never considered the keyboard a witness. He had typed his master encryption passphrase just before wiping the system. She fed the timing data into a Bayesian
