2-of-3A multisignature configuration in which at least two of three available private keys must provide signatures.
2FAAn abbreviation for two-factor authentication, used to add an extra verification step during login or access.
3-of-5A multisignature configuration in which at least three of five available private keys must provide signatures.
51% attackA network risk associated with excessive concentration of computing power; the evidence presents it as a broader threat linked to the way selfish mining may weaken decentralization.
51% AttackA situation in which malicious actors control most of a network's hashing power and may threaten the operation of the blockchain.
51% attackAlso known as a majority attack, this refers to an attacker controlling more than half of a blockchain network’s hash power and potentially disrupting consensus, transaction confirmations, or carrying out double-spending.
