Admin Key Risk is the risk of the master private key being compromised.
An admin key, also known as an administrative key or administrator key, is a key or password that grants access to administrative functions and controls. This type of key is typically only given to authorized individuals, such as system administrators, who are responsible for managing and maintaining a system.
The risk associated with an admin key is that if it falls into the wrong hands, it could be used to gain unauthorized access to sensitive systems and data, potentially leading to security breaches and other damage. It is important to properly secure and protect admin keys to minimize this risk.
