Chapter 6 — Security and Proof Systems:
6.1 Proofs of Availability
Walrus employs cryptographic proofs that allow any observer to verify:
That a storage node still holds its assigned data fragments,
Without needing to download the entire file.
This ensures high reliability and guarantees that data remains accessible over time.
6.2 Resistance to Node Failure
Thanks to Red Stuff coding, files remain retrievable even if a substantial percentage of nodes disappear. This provides a strong foundation for decentralized resilience especially relevant for global availability standards.
