Kima Security: TSS + Intel SGX Explained

๐Ÿ” What does "TSS + Intel SGX" mean in Kimaโ€™s infrastructure?

Letโ€™s break it down ๐Ÿ‘‡

๐Ÿงฉ Threshold Secret Sharing (TSS): Instead of a single private key controlling access to funds, the key is split among multiple validators.

โžก๏ธ Only when a predefined number (e.g., 3 of 5) agree, the transaction can go through.
- This eliminates single points of failure and enhances trustlessness.

๐Ÿ›ก Intel SGX (Secure Enclave): SGX is a hardware-level security layer that creates an isolated environment (enclave) inside a computerโ€™s CPU.
โžก๏ธ Validators run critical operations inside SGX, meaning even if a machine is compromised, private data stays safe.

Together = Unmatched Security

By combining TSS (decentralized trust) with Intel SGX (hardware-level protection), Kima ensures that:

๐Ÿ”’ No single entity can move funds
๐Ÿง  Private data is shielded even from attackers with system access
๐Ÿšซ Eliminates the risk of key leaks and exploits that plague traditional bridges and wallets
