Network Security Metric

Definition ∞ 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.

A crystalline, multifaceted geometric token, resembling a diamond, is suspended within a futuristic, white toroidal structure adorned with circuit-like patterns. This structure floats above a complex, blue-lit motherboard, suggesting a digital or blockchain environment. The scene evokes the abstract representation of a digital asset, such as an ERC-20 token or a non-fungible token NFT, integrated within a distributed ledger technology DLT framework. It visually communicates concepts of cryptographic security, tokenomics, and the underlying infrastructure of decentralized applications dApps and smart contracts.
