DoS resistance refers to a system’s ability to withstand denial-of-service attacks, which aim to make a network resource unavailable to its users. In blockchain systems, DoS resistance ensures that the network can continue processing transactions and maintaining consensus even under malicious load. Robust network architecture and efficient resource management contribute to this resilience. It is a critical security property for decentralized platforms.
Context
Maintaining DoS resistance is an ongoing challenge for blockchain networks, with new attack vectors constantly emerging. News often covers network upgrades and protocol changes designed to fortify defenses against such disruptions. The decentralized nature of many blockchains inherently aids DoS resistance by distributing network operations across numerous nodes.
