Strengthening Blockchain Security: Edenia's Tikuna Project

We are excited to share the accomplishments of Edenia's Tikuna project, a groundbreaking initiative funded by the Ethereum Foundation (EF) academic research grant.

Enhancing the Ethereum P2P Network Security

The Tikuna project focuses on the security of the Ethereum blockchain's P2P network layer, a crucial component vulnerable to various cyber-attacks.

Key Contributions of Tikuna

Machine Learning Anomaly Detection: Implementation of a machine learning approach to detect attacks on the Ethereum P2P layer.
Eclipse Attack Detection: Demonstrating the detection of eclipse attacks using custom-generated log data from the Ethereum client Prysm.
Custom Exploit for Eclipse Attack Testing: Development and testing of a custom exploit against a modified Prysm client in the mainnet.

Visualizing Network Security

To further enhance network security visibility, Tikuna introduces three Grafana dashboards, showcasing real-time network behavior.

Drafting a Comprehensive Research Paper

The team is drafting a research paper detailing our methodology and findings, aiming to contribute significantly to blockchain security research.

Stay tuned for more updates on Edenia's pioneering efforts in blockchain security!
