Signal jamming as a weapon often fails in practice—Iran's attempt proved this point. Low-bandwidth communication channels, stripped of unnecessary complexity, slipped through the noise and kept networks alive. That's the resilience we see in decentralized systems.

But here's what keeps security teams up at night: jamming is just the opening move. The real danger emerges when adversaries shift tactics—not blocking signals, but poisoning them. Spoofed packets masquerading as legitimate traffic. Corrupted data streams that look pristine. Man-in-the-middle attacks that intercept and rewrite messages in transit.

In highly contested environments, deception beats disruption every time. A network can reroute around blocks, but contaminated information? That spreads like wildfire before anyone realizes something's wrong. For blockchain networks and decentralized protocols, this threat vector demands constant attention.
