Operational resilience refers to the capacity of a system or organization to continue functioning and delivering its essential services even when subjected to disruptions or adverse events. In the context of digital assets and blockchain infrastructure, this involves robust security measures, redundant systems, and effective incident response plans to maintain network integrity and service availability. It is critical for maintaining trust and preventing systemic failures.
