Security and Operations
This page summarizes the security policies and operating procedures used to run Low Fee Validation's Solana infrastructure.
1. Infrastructure
Validator workloads run on dedicated servers in professional colocation facilities. The goal is to reduce shared-failure risk, keep performance predictable, and maintain direct control over the hardware path.
2. Redundancy
Low Fee Validation maintains a primary validator and a standby validator. This architecture supports controlled failover and maintenance operations without relying on a single machine or a single maintenance window.
3. Monitoring
Operations are monitored through validator health, sync status, RPC health, slot lag, and external networking checks. Network transport used for validator performance is also verified after upgrades and incident recovery.
4. Change Management
Software changes are first prepared on the standby path. Synchronization and validator health are verified before controlled migration. The peer node is only updated after the new active side is confirmed healthy.
5. Operations
Operational procedures prioritize avoiding double signing, validating health before and after migration, and keeping rollback paths ready. When there is uncertainty, changes are paused until the validator state is clearly safe.
6. Incident Response
If a transport, software, or sync issue is detected, the response flow is to restore healthy validator communication, confirm service health, and only then continue with maintenance. This reduces the chance of compounding faults during live operations.
Operational Summary
Catchup, lag, RPC health, and log confirmation after migrations and upgrades.
BGP session state, tunnel health, and transport checks for external validator networking.
Standby-first upgrades, explicit validation gates, and rollback awareness before proceeding.
Public validator metadata, public website presence, and direct communication channels for delegators.
