An introduction to Para’s architecture and core components
Para provides a robust and secure architecture for creating and managing universal embedded wallets across various blockchain
ecosystems. This overview introduces the key components and features of Para’s design, setting the stage for a deeper
dive into its technical aspects.
Para’s architecture leverages several key concepts:
Multi-Party Computation (MPC) Key Management: Para uses a 2-of-2 MPC system for secure key management, comprising
a User Share and a Cloud Key.
Passkey: This separate key leverages hardware secure enclaves while maintaining blockchain compatibility.
Distributed Key Generation (DKG): Ensures that the full private key is never assembled in a single location.
Passkeys and WebAuthn: Implements the WebAuthn standard for enhanced security.
Permissions Framework: Allows granular control over transaction signing across multiple applications.
These components work together to provide a secure, flexible, and user-friendly wallet solution that can be embedded in
various applications across different platforms and blockchain ecosystems.
By leveraging these architectural components and features, Para provides a comprehensive solution for developers to
implement secure, user-friendly universal embedded wallets in their applications across various platforms and blockchain
ecosystems.
