Description
TL;DR: A structured risk-assessment model covering smart contracts, keys, consensus, network attacks, data exposure, and operational controls.
About This Document
Mohammad Qatawneh presents the Blockchain Cybersecurity Risk Assessment Model as a response to fragmented security reviews. The paper classifies risks such as smart-contract exploits, private-key compromise, Sybil attacks, and majority attacks, then organizes assessment and mitigation across application, network, consensus, and operational layers.
Why Bitcoin People May Care
A framework can help teams ask consistent questions, but it does not prove that a particular Bitcoin service or smart contract is secure. The categories span multiple blockchain architectures with different threat models. Readers should treat the paper as a 2025 assessment proposal whose usefulness depends on accurate inputs, implementation detail, and independent technical judgment.
