# User Flows and Account Controls

Passport Protocol operates through a meticulously designed process that ensures the security and integrity of cryptographic key management. Here's a detailed overview of how it works:

### Typical User Flows

Here are the core components of Passport Protocol:

* **Scope**: Application level configuration
* **User Action**: Any use of an account (ex, signing)
* **Policy**: Set of rules that govern the use and access of an account
* **Credentials**: verifies access to an account.
* **Account**: contains information about credentials and the MPC generated keys
