## Algorithm Choice
|
## Algorithm Choice
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The server uses **SHA-256 based proof-of-work** with leading zero bits difficulty:
|
See [Architecture Choices](docs/ARCHITECTURE.md) for detailed algorithm selection rationale and implementation decisions.
|
||||||
- **Why SHA-256**: Cryptographically secure, well-tested, hardware-optimized
|
|
||||||
- **Leading Zero Bits**: Simple difficulty scaling, easy verification
|
|
||||||
- **HMAC Authentication**: Prevents challenge tampering and replay attacks
|
|
||||||
- **Configurable Difficulty**: Adaptive to different threat levels (4-30 bits)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This approach provides strong DDoS protection while remaining computationally reasonable for legitimate clients.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Current Status
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
✅ **Complete**: Core functionality, TCP server, client, metrics, containerization
|
|
||||||
🔄 **In Progress**: Documentation (Phase 9)
|
|
||||||
📋 **Planned**: See [Production Readiness Guide](docs/PRODUCTION_READINESS.md) for production deployment requirements

||||||

|
||||||
## Testing
