Are you wondering where the name ‘Sybil’ comes from in terms like ‘Sybil Resistance’ or ‘Sybil Attack’, where a single adversary creates multiple fake identities (or nodes) to gain unfair influence or disrupt a network? Me too! Well here’s where… The term “Sybil” in “Sybil attack” comes from the name of a real person—Sybil Dorsett, the pseudonym of a woman who was famously (and controversially) documented in the 1973 book Sybil as having multiple personality disorder (now called dissociative identity disorder). Why the name? In 2002, researchers Brian Zill and John Douceur introduced the term “Sybil attack” in a paper describing how a single user could control many fake identities in a distributed network. They named it after Sybil Dorsett because: The attacker presents many identities, like Sybil’s multiple personalities. So, the name is metaphorical: just as Sybil had multiple personas, an attacker simulates many users while actually being just one entity. If you’re interested, I can link the original academic paper or explain how it influenced modern decentralized design. Source: ChatGPT-4-Turbo #tilstr #sybilstr
