What is the significance of forward secrecy? Answer concisely in 2-3 sentences.

Generation

Forward secrecy ensures that if a server's private key is compromised, past encrypted communications remain secure because session keys are generated independently for each session and not stored long-term. This prevents attackers from decrypting previously recorded traffic even after obtaining the server's key. It's a critical security property for protecting historical communications from retroactive surveillance or breaches.
