What Is the Trade-off between Data Latency and Data Security in Oracle Design?

There is a fundamental trade-off between data latency and data security. To achieve lower latency, an oracle network might reduce the number of nodes required for consensus or lower the reporting threshold.

However, this decreases the security and manipulation resistance of the data. Conversely, increasing security by requiring more nodes to sign a report increases the time required for aggregation and transmission, leading to higher latency.
