Due to the large number of IoT devices the severity of DDos attacks have increased. By using a distributed consensus architecture you can prevent the attacker from targeting a single server and making them target several servers. This technology is currently used in Bitcoin and other transactional technology but due to performance restraints it hasn\u2019t been a reliable option for DDos defense. However, there are firm developing distributed consensus technology that can handle the performance and security demands.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blockchain\u2019s New Role In The Internet of Things http:\/\/www.darkreading.com\/iot\/blockchains-new-role-in-the-internet-of-things\/a\/d-id\/1328239 This article discusses the use of distributed consensus algorithms that combine both performance and security to prevent DDoS attacks such as the Mirai botnet attack that took down Dyn in October.
