<p>Lost seed phrases and private keys led to<a href="https://interestingengineering.com/140-billion-in-bitcoin-is-lost-due-to-forgotten-passwords?ref=p2p.org"> the loss of more than hundred billions worth of digital assets</a>. Complexity of access elements and key management implies a tangible entry barrier for non-technical users who want to explore crypto ecosystems. Auth Network (prev. Torus Network) is a decentralized key management protocol that helps facilitate seamless access to a variety of services offering an elegant solution to those problems without sacrificing security.</p><p>Private keys get split to multiple pieces and in order to access a desired service a person needs to have any two of them. The first share is stored on the user’s device and the second share is managed by the social log-in provider which is further split among a crucial network of node operators. The third share is decided by the user for added security. <strong>This approach provides a remarkable level of security and simplifies key recovery.</strong></p><p>Open and accessible network allows to achieve a higher level of sovereignty over the keys making it possible to use ordinary Web2 flow to access Web3 services. Web3Auth’s pluggable SDKs can be integrated with any Web3 Application or Wallet in just under a few minutes and the users can enjoy an intuitive, seamless and non-custodial onboarding experience.</p><p><em>P2P is thrilled to join as the Auth Network Guardian to ensure secure key management within the system.
