Safe operating expectations
Keep device-management interfaces private, verify software integrity, use least privilege, maintain recovery options, document configuration changes, and stop when hardware or target identity is uncertain.
Reporting concerns
Add a verified abuse and security-reporting address before public launch. Reports should include the affected service, relevant timestamps, and a clear description without unnecessary sensitive data.
