Abstract
A system provides for authorization of data access and processing functions within a distributed server network using a delegated proof-of-stake consensus mechanism. In particular, the system may use assign authorization levels to each node within the network environment. Certain actions or processes performed within the network (e.g., potentially damaging actions) may require that the node proposing the action meets a threshold authorization level before authorizing the action. The system may further increase or decrease authorization levels for each node depending on the outcomes of the proposed actions. In this way, the system may provide a secure way to authorize certain actions or processes taken within a computing environment.
