Yes, Tezos secures its network by utilizing a proof of stake consensus mechanism. This mechanism allows bakers to stake their funds to validate blocks and earn rewards for their efforts. Bakers must have a minimum amount of funds staked in order to be eligible to validate blocks, and the more funds they stake, the higher the rewards they can earn. This incentivizes bakers to ensure the security of the network and prevents them from engaging in malicious activities. Additionally, Tezos uses a decentralized governance system that allows stakeholders to vote on proposed changes to the network, further increasing the security of the network.
