 iCloud Account Recovery is an alternative method to unlock FileVault and reset your password if you’ve forgotten your login password or it’s locked from too many failed attempts to log in. iCloud Account Recovery allows you to use your Apple ID and password to unlock your Mac and reset your user account password, if you stored your FileVault recovery key in iCloud when you turned on FileVault. To use iCloud Account Recovery, you need to restart your Mac and enter the Password Reset Assistant from the FileVault login screen or from Recovery Mode. Then, you need to select “I forgot my password” and sign in with your Apple ID and password. Follow the onscreen instructions to unlock your Mac and reset your password. References: = Apple - Support - Manuals, Find My User Guide, iCloud Account Recovery; Apple Device Support Exam Prep Guide, page 6.

 FileVault is a feature that encrypts the data on your Mac’s startup disk, making it more secure. To unlock your Mac, you need to enter your account password or a recovery key. A recovery key is a 28-character code that is generated when you turn on FileVault. You can choose to store it in iCloud or write it down and keep it in a safe place. An iCloud account and password can also be used to reset your FileVault password, if you enabled this option when you turned on FileVault. The other options, authenticator app, using a trusted device, and SMS verification code, are not valid ways to reset a FileVault password on a Mac. References: 1 Use FileVault to encrypt the startup disk on your Mac - Apple Support 2 Reset a macOS User Password - Kandji 3 How to unlock your Mac with its Recovery Key and FileVault active - Macworld
