🔒Managed Wallet Security

To facilitate transactions on the blockchain on behalf of users, service providers either need access to the user's private key or must be authorized through a "master" key. This process, while efficient, carries the inherent risk of unauthorized transactions if an attacker gains access to these critical keys, effectively allowing them to operate as if they were the wallet owner.

This security concern is mitigated by robust mechanisms similar to those outlined on the network security page. The central bank, holding the physical gold reserves, possesses the capability to freeze assets identified as stolen, thereby safeguarding the rightful owner's holdings. Through the implementation of local policies and the enforcement of Know Your Customer (KYC) protocols for each transaction, the system ensures that the identity of all participants is verified, greatly reducing the attractiveness of fraudulent transfers.

By integrating these protective measures, the system not only enhances the security of digital transactions but also ensures that, in the event of a breach, the potential for loss is minimized. The combination of asset freeze capabilities and mandatory KYC requirements creates a formidable barrier against unauthorized access, making any attempt to illicitly divert digital gold both traceable and futile.
