# Multi-Signing
|
|
|
|
Multi-signing is one of three ways to authorize transactions for the XRP Ledger, alongside signing with [regular keys and master keys](cryptographic-keys.html). You can configure your address to allow any combination of the three methods to authorize transactions.
|
|
|
|
Benefits of multi-signing include:
|
|
|
|
* You can require keys from different devices, so that a malicious actor must compromise multiple machines to send transactions on your behalf.
|
|
* You can share custody of an address between multiple people, each of whom only has one of several keys necessary to send transactions from that address.
|
|
* You can delegate the power to send transactions from your address to a group of people, who can control your address if you are unavailable or unable to sign normally.
|
|
* ... and more.
