How do you protect content from thieves ?
You have hundred of gpus in a container, about 400$ each.
Very easy to take all of them away with a small car.
Lots of people are asking about security. It's a very good question and one we take very seriously (thought it almost makes us wonder what's on your mind
).
There are many layers to the security stack:
The first barrier is that our mobile mining units will be deployed in the close proximity to power plants (e.g. PV) that offer already a high degree of security. The available security at a location is one of the criteria that is taken into account when choosing a location
The second barrier is that for the first sites, we will deploy a large enough number of mobile mining units that allows to have a small dedicated staff on location that will provide security and execute service/maintenance tasks. This might for example then include an external security company that provides this service for let's say 50 units.
The third barrier are standard physical barriers like barbed wire and our automated doorman system that includes heavy locks that are operated by our servers. This level includes motion sensors, etc. that all report directly to our cloud application. The software part is actually already running in our first generation!
Last but not least, our mobile mining units are insured against theft, damage and natural disasters like floods. So even if something happens, they are insured.
There's a lot of detail on our physical as well as network security in the whitepaper. Please check it out:
