Security in blockchain network
The security of blockchain networks is a fundamental feature built on consensus, cryptography, and decentralization principles.
Transactions are validated and agreed upon by a consensus mechanism (authorized users), and each new block is connected to all previous blocks in a tamper-proof way. The blockchain network is designed to be highly secure, with the use of cryptographic techniques making it impossible to alter data. With no single point of failure, blockchain networks are also resilient against cyber attacks, ensuring the integrity of the transactions and data stored on the network.
