Security Policies

At Synergy Nodes, security is our top priority. We implement enterprise-grade security measures to protect our infrastructure, your data, and the blockchain networks we support.

Security Measures

Access Control

Multi-factor authentication, role-based permissions, and least privilege access principles.

Data Protection

End-to-end encryption for data in transit and at rest, with comprehensive backup strategies.

Monitoring

24/7 security monitoring, intrusion detection, and real-time alerting systems.

Secure Development

Secure coding practices, regular code reviews, and automated security testing.

1. Access Control

  • Access to systems is limited to team members whose operational role requires it
  • Strong authentication is enforced for privileged and infrastructure-level access
  • Permissions are reviewed periodically and adjusted as responsibilities change
  • Sensitive directories and files are protected through restrictive server-level access rules

2. Data Protection

  • Network communications involving sensitive data are protected against interception
  • Stored operational data is safeguarded to prevent unauthorized disclosure
  • Data lifecycle handling follows defined retention and removal guidelines
  • Access to sensitive data is reviewed to identify unexpected or improper usage

3. Vulnerability Management

  • Infrastructure components are routinely evaluated for security weaknesses
  • Software and dependencies are kept up to date to reduce exposure to known risks
  • Newly identified vulnerabilities are assessed and addressed based on severity
  • Periodic security reviews are conducted to validate overall system posture

4. Secure Development

  • Internal tooling and scripts follow defensive development practices
  • Database interactions are designed to avoid injection and query manipulation risks
  • Inputs are handled cautiously to reduce exposure to client-side and logic attacks
  • Sensitive credentials and secrets are excluded from source code and repositories

5. Security Monitoring

  • Systems are observed for patterns that may indicate misuse or abnormal behavior
  • Logs and network activity are reviewed to detect unexpected access or changes
  • Alerts are configured to surface events requiring immediate attention
  • Operational activity is recorded to support investigation and accountability

6. Incident Response

  • Clear procedures exist for handling security-related events
  • Responsibilities during incidents are predefined to reduce response time
  • Response readiness is tested periodically through internal reviews
  • Communication channels are established for escalation and resolution

7. Infrastructure Security

  • Infrastructure access is controlled to prevent unauthorized physical or remote entry
  • Environmental conditions are monitored to protect system stability
  • Baseline configurations are maintained to reduce misconfiguration risk
  • Redundancy and recovery planning support continued validator operation

8. User Education & Awareness

  • Team members are kept informed of relevant security risks and practices
  • Awareness efforts cover phishing, social engineering, and credential misuse
  • Guidance is provided on maintaining secure access habits
  • Security considerations are treated as part of daily operations

9. Third-Party Risk Management

  • External services are evaluated before being introduced into operations
  • Dependencies are reviewed periodically to ensure they remain appropriate
  • Risk considerations influence vendor and integration decisions
  • Supply chain exposure is minimized where possible

10. Compliance & Auditing

  • Security practices are reviewed internally on a recurring basis
  • Applicable standards are considered when shaping operational controls
  • Independent reviews may be engaged when appropriate
  • Transparency is maintained around security posture and improvements
