Distributed Key Generation (DKG) is a process used to create cryptographic keys across multiple participants in a network, rather than having a single entity generate them. This enhances security by ensuring that no single participant has complete control over the key.In DKG, each participant generates a partial key and shares it with others. These partial keys are then combined to form a complete key. Because the generation process is distributed, it mitigates risks such as key theft or compromise. If one participant is compromised, the overall security remains intact since the full key is not held by any single person.This method is particularly useful in scenarios where trust needs to be minimized, such as in decentralized applications or multi-signature wallets. DKG ensures that a collaborative approach to key management can enhance both security and resilience, making it harder for malicious actors to disrupt the system.
