The odero Project is in the process of creating a blockchain network that can be utilized by millions of users around the globe. This underscores the importance of network security. Unencrypted network communication poses risks to privacy, security, and data integrity. odero is pioneering as the first blockchain project to implement self-signed TLS encryption for its network communication, safeguarding network participants from eavesdropping and tampering with network data. ЯThe odero team is also considering future large-scale applications, such as enterprise services that manage thousands of clients per second. They are continually enhancing the network to achieve this objective. For instance, with the encrypted network, after conducting benchmarks, they opted for ECDSA over RSA for key generation because it supports a greater number of handshakes per second.

odero also utilizes UDP for peer to peer communication instead of TCP. This allows node software to run and listen to network events while reducing exposure to the operating system's kernel and also lowers network overhead.

The odero team also keeps future large scale applications in mind, e.g. enterprise services which handle thousands of clients per second. They are continuously improving the network in order to accomplish this goal. For example, with the encrypted network, after performing benchmarks they chose ECDSA instead of RSA as method for key generation as it allows for a higher number of handshakes per second.
