Security
Security measures that should be taken before running Nethermind Node on Ethereum Mainnet
DO NOT use Nethermind wallet / signers for mainnet ETH handling!
📢
JSON RPC endpoint (port
📢
8545) should NOT be exposed publicly (should be behind the firewall).The private key from which the node ID is derived is stored on disk (NOT protected by password).
📢
Nethermind is thoroughly tested but the more popular it will get the more likely it will be the target of client-specific attacks. Generally you should always consider running backup client nodes implemented by a different team for any critical operations.
For non-mainnet signing you can use dev wallet configurations.
