To create a secure backup location for Corso, you will create a bucket in AWS S3 and then initialize the Corso
repository using an [encryption passphrase](/setup/configuration#environment-variables). The steps below use
`corso-test` as the bucket name but, if you are using AWS, you will need a different unique name for the bucket.
The following commands assume that all the configuration values from the previous step, `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, and
`AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` are available to the Corso binary or container.
