The host operating system is able to recognize this hierarchy and integrate it with the rest of the system's content.

In essence, the cryptex acts as an extension to the operating system, providing additional functionality and security.

The term "cryptex" is a combination of the words "CRYPTographically-sealed" and "EXtension," reflecting its dual nature as both a secure archive and an extension to the operating system.
