Meshtastic security

Howdy Meshers, recognizing that security is a critically important concern, please be careful when communicating over SnyderMesh and other Meshtastic networks. Hackers continue to look for and exploit vulnerabilities in Meshtastic. The open source development team will continue to implement bug fixes and look at rearchitecting as needed to help avoid these vulnerabilities. Be sure to regularly update your firmware and apps to benefit from these latest fixes.

Do not share or trust information on public or private channels that you would not feel comfortable sharing publicly or trust learning from a publicly announced but unverified source.

Direct messages seem to be insulated from these concerns at this time but it’s important to remain aware of potential spoofers and phishing attempts.
