Zusammenfassung:	Systems and methods herein are for protecting secrets with multi-party approval in a computer network. One or more processing units enable accumulation of a plurality of encrypted shards that are received at different timepoints and that are associated with a secret. A process that is remote from the server is enabled, upon accumulating a predetermined number of the plurality of encrypted shards, to cause, in communication with a trusted server, decryption and combination to be performed on the plurality of encrypted shards to provide access to the secret.
