Network bootstrap and data governance: the first step toward security
When organizations decide to form a permissioned private blockchain network using Hyperledger Fabric, they need to consider several governance aspects that will ultimately determine the overall security posture of the Hyperledger Fabric-based network. These governance aspects include, but are not limited to, the items discussed in this section.
Bootstrapping the network with known members
Bootstrapping the network is the first step in creating a Hyperledger Fabric-based blockchain network. The network typically represents the existing or new business relationships between the participating organizations. The organizations responsible for creating the network are typically known to each other through existing business relationships and have a lot of say in the purpose of the network, such as:
- Sharing data
- Defining the data schema to be shared among participants
