We also looked into how you can allow a multisig to maintain ownership or the role of a target contract. Every transaction on a multisig needs to have multiple signatures in order to be executed, which improves the security of the contract or funds. There are a few other multisig wallets available, but, at the time of writing, the ConsenSys multisig wallet seems to be one of the safest.

We also understood that, along with the fund's safety, multisig wallets can also be used for maintaining ownership access rights. These improve the multi-level security of your funds and access controls. It is always recommended to use multisig wallets...
