Network Resilience

Abstract

Network resilience refers to the ability of a communication network to maintain acceptable levels of service in the presence of faults, cyberattacks, natural disasters, or unexpected operational disruptions. As societies become increasingly dependent on digital connectivity, resilient network infrastructures are critical for economic stability, public safety, and organizational continuity. This paper explores the concept of network resilience, its core principles, and the technical and strategic mechanisms used to enhance resilience in modern communication systems. The discussion also justifies the importance of network resilience by examining the consequences of network failures and the growing threat landscape. The study concludes that resilience is not merely a technical requirement but a strategic necessity for sustainable digital transformation.
