Secret sharing is a cryptographic technique that divides a secret piece of information into multiple parts, called shares. These shares are then distributed among different parties, and a specified minimum number of shares are required to reconstruct the original secret. This method ensures that no single party possesses the complete secret, thereby enhancing security.
Context
Secret sharing is increasingly relevant in the digital asset management and decentralized finance sectors for securing private keys and sensitive data. News articles may report on its application in multi-signature wallets, secure key recovery mechanisms, or distributed custodianship solutions. The focus is often on how secret sharing protocols bolster security against single points of failure and unauthorized access.
