🔐 What’s the difference between mainnet nodes and IoT end devices in the Vacuum Network?
They play completely different roles.
Mainnet nodes form the foundation of the network’s trust layer. They handle PoT consensus, audit verification, and full-network security.
IoT end devices, on the other hand, operate within the domain. Their role is to complete device fingerprint authentication and report relevant business data.
The security model is layered:
🔹 Nodes: Full-network security responsibilities
🔹 End devices: Locally verifiable execution
🔹 Clear permission boundaries: Responsibilities stay separated
🔹 Isolation: A compromised endpoint has a limited blast radius
By separating network-level security from device-level operations, Vacuum Network creates a more scalable and secure architecture for large-scale IoT deployments.
