Decentralized security
Decentralized security refers to a strategic approach in which control and decision-making are distributed across multiple nodes or components within a system, rather than being centralized in a single location. This method aims to enhance the overall security posture by mitigating the risk of a single point of failure that could be exploited by attackers. By dispersing security responsibilities and data across various points, decentralized security reduces the vulnerability of the system to breaches and failures. It is often employed in blockchain technologies, distributed networks, and multi-tiered security architectures to provide more robust and resilient protection. This approach ensures that even if one component is compromised, the integrity of the entire system remains intact.
