A network security metric is a quantifiable measure used to assess the robustness and resilience of a blockchain network against attacks and operational failures. Examples include hashing power distribution, validator count, stake distribution, and transaction finality times. These metrics provide data on the integrity of the system.
Context
Tracking network security metrics is essential for evaluating the decentralization and attack resistance of digital asset protocols. A decline in key metrics, such as a concentration of hashing power or a reduction in active validators, can signal increased vulnerability and potentially impact the network’s long-term viability and trustworthiness.
