Physical & Network Protection
Our validator is hosted on enterprise-grade server platforms with high-performance hardware and reliable network links, giving Solana a resilient infrastructure backbone.
Access Control & Key Management
- Only pre-approved IP addresses with whitelisted SSH keys can reach the servers.
- All signing operations use fully offline keys, eliminating on-network exposure.
- When new hardware is added, fresh keys are issued and the old ones are retired.
Software Used
- We run only the original open-source software from the official Jito Solana repository:
github.com/jito-foundation/jito-solana.
- No other applications are installed on the server beyond those required for validating or operating the Solana network.
Continuous Monitoring & Updates
- Our team tracks hardware and software metrics 24 / 7 and responds immediately to any anomalies.
- The Linux kernel and security packages are updated regularly to maintain a current protection level.
- A “closed-ports-by-default” policy minimizes the attack surface.
Security Features of the Solana Blockchain
- Validators like Dragon Trust Stake never have access to your wallet or funds, so you retain full control at all times.
- Staking rewards are distributed automatically by the blockchain, ensuring accuracy without third-party trust.
- You can unstake your SOL whenever you wish; funds become available after one epoch (~2.5 days) even if the validator goes offline.
