The Ethereum Security Initiative is a set of planned security enhancements to be implemented on the Ethereum network aimed at increasing its resilience against attacks and ensuring its long-term stability.
🔐 Initiative Goals
Improve the network's resistance to attacks: By reducing the time required to confirm blocks, making it difficult to execute advanced reorganization (reorgs) attacks.
Enhance censorship resistance: By separating block proposers from builders, making it hard for any entity to impose censorship on transactions.
Protect validators: Through techniques such as "Secret Leader Election," making it difficult for attackers to target validators in advance.
🛡️ Key Technologies
Secret Leader Election: Aims to prevent attackers from identifying validators in advance, thus improving network security.
Proposer-Builder Separation (PBS): Prevents the concentration of power in the hands of a few entities.
