Flexible Trust refers to an adaptable approach to security and validation within a digital system, allowing varying degrees of reliance on different participants or mechanisms. This contrasts with rigid, uniform trust assumptions across an entire network. It enables systems to tailor security measures and trust thresholds based on specific operational requirements, asset values, or transaction contexts.
Context
This concept gains prominence in interoperable blockchain environments and hybrid systems that interact with diverse trust domains. It seeks to optimize security and efficiency by adjusting trust assumptions to different use cases and network conditions. The ongoing discussion explores how to implement such flexibility without introducing undue complexity or security vulnerabilities.
