Rakurai’s validator node is managed by a dedicated team of professional engineers. We prioritize safety and reliability by implementing several key measures:
Access to the node requires both a 4096-bit key pair and a password. This dual authentication method protects us from brute force attacks and private key compromises.
The node is accessible exclusively through a secure VPN connection, adding an extra layer of protection.
Our firewall is configured to block spam and prevent DDoS attacks, ensuring the node remains secure and operational.
We maintain backup machines that are ready to take over if the main machine experiences issues. These backups also handle voting during validator version updates, ensuring continuous service.
We use a Grafana dashboard to monitor the node’s performance around the clock. This allows us to receive alerts and address any potential issues before they escalate.
