A key state of an AID is first established through an inception event and may be altered by subsequent rotation events.

A set of authoritative keys for an AID and other essential information necessary to establish, evolve, verify, and validate control-signing authority for that AID. This information includes the current public keys and their thresholds (for a multi-signature scheme); pre-rotated key digests and their thresholds; witnesses and their thresholds; and configurations. An AID’s key state is first established through its inception event and may evolve via subsequent rotation events. Thus, an AID’s key state is time-dependent.
