A Key Management Network refers to an interconnected system designed to securely generate, store, distribute, and revoke cryptographic keys across various devices and applications. In the context of digital assets, such a network is vital for managing the private keys that control access to cryptocurrency wallets and blockchain transactions. It ensures the authenticity and integrity of digital interactions by providing a reliable infrastructure for cryptographic operations. This system is paramount for maintaining the security posture of digital asset custodians and users.
Context
