**Please describe the setup you are using for your validator? Include any relevant security information, processor speed, backups and sentry nodes etc…**

We're using a multi-sentry node architecture, connected by VPNs. The architecture is backed-up regularly and monitored around the clock. We incorporate our experience having run Cosmos-based validators for 3.5 years. We follow similar principles for our Regen infrastructure as we do for our Cosmos Hub validator infrastructure. ![](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex004/uploads/regen/original/1X/1f9ca66b1d2fb8cab774cc8cd7dbb7bbfe63e219.png)[Chainflow – 9 Apr 19](https://chainflow.io/cosmos-validator-architecture/ "03:14PM - 09 April 2019")

### [Chainflow Cosmos Validator Network Architecture](https://chainflow.io/cosmos-validator-architecture/)

This architecture draws on my 20+ years of experience designing large, global and mission critical network and data center architectures.

We plan to explore ways to make our validator operation carbon neutral.

Hi Chris, I am reading the profiles of Regen validators, before staking, and just wanted to say I super appreciated your articles and learned a lot from them. Thank you for your dedication to decentralization 🙏
