MPC

Multi-party computation; threshold-signing schemes can use it to produce signatures from distributed secret shares.

A concrete example

Two independent participants contribute shares without normally assembling a full key.

In context

A two-of-three arrangement can tolerate one unavailable participant, but availability alone says little about compromise resistance. Examine where shares are generated, which parties operate them, how devices authenticate, and whether one administrator controls multiple shares. Several machines in one administrative domain may not provide meaningful independence.

Multi-party computation allows participants to calculate a result jointly without revealing their private inputs to one another.
