# Eliminating Security Risks: Attack Scenarios and Stateless Client Solutions Interacting with blockchain networks through trusted RPC providers introduces significant security risks. When applications, IoT devices, or other systems rely on centralized RPC endpoints without verifying the received data, they become vulnerable to various attack vectors. The following sections outline security risks associated with unverified blockchain data, the role of trustless stateless clients in mitigating these threats, and real-world scenarios demonstrating the impact of these risks. Stateless clients enhance security by ensuring blockchain data integrity, preventing manipulation, and eliminating trust dependencies. Replacing trusted RPC endpoints with cryptographically verifiable blockchain interactions strengthens application security and resilience against attacks. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
