Standards don’t matter until they fail. Then they matter all at once. The BSSC Node Operation Standard sets the baseline for secure, reliable node infrastructure. If you’re integrating, running, or relying on nodes—this is the line. Miss it, and you’re exposed. Review the standard: blockchainssc.org/standards #BSSC #BlockchainSecurity #NodeStandards

At the @NIST workshop, BSSC was in the room shaping the conversation. Annalea Sanders, CISSP, representing Blockchain Security Standards Council (BSSC) and @Figment_io , contributed to the Technology Ecosystem Overview panel. From institutional adoption to interoperability and security risk, the message was clear. Standards and coordination will define what scales. This is how the next phase of blockchain is being built.
