Cryptographic Overhead Minimization

Definition

Cryptographic overhead minimization concerns strategies and techniques aimed at reducing the computational resources and time required for cryptographic operations within a system. This involves optimizing algorithms, data structures, and protocol designs to lessen the processing burden associated with security functions. Achieving this balance is crucial for improving the scalability and efficiency of blockchain networks and digital asset transactions. It seeks to deliver robust security without unduly hindering system performance.
