Security

T-Mobile Deutsche Telekom MMS has partnered with Subsquid, a decentralized data platform, to run dedicated worker nodes as part of Subsquid’s decentralized “data lake.”
According to a press release shared with Cointelegraph, the collaboration aims to improve the security and efficiency of blockchain data retrieval and delivery.
Worker nodes in the Subsquid network process data queries and retrieve the requested information from the data lake for data consumers.
In a written Q&amp;A with Cointelegraph, Alexander Ebeling, co-founder of Web3 Unit Deutsche Telekom MMS, said:

Marcel Fohrmann, co-founder of Subsquid, told Cointelegraph that this partnership would help “strengthen and secure permissionless data access” across Web3.&nbsp;
The collaboration follows Deutsche Telekom’s recent <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/deutsche-telekom-becomes-polygon-validator">decision to become a validator</a> for the Ethereum layer-2 scaling platform Polygon, becoming one of the network’s 100 staking and validation providers.
Dmitry Zhelezov, co-founder of Subsquid, discussed data handling, explaining that each piece of data is “cryptographically validated” to ensure “all the relevant data is authentic:”
<blockquote data-ct-non-breakable="true">
 “Once [data] has been added to the Subsquid Network, every piece of data is replicated across dozens of nodes across the network, so even if a node goes offline, all the data remains available for consumers.”

When discussing data security, Ebeling explained that “security remains a paramount concern, as enterprise-scale systems are prime targets for cyber threats.”
<blockquote data-ct-non-breakable="true">
 “[...] we implement rigorous security audits aligned with high internal Telekom standards and maintain an on-call duty team available 24/7 to guarantee the uptime of our blockchain infrastructure.”
</blockquote>
Speaking for Subsquid, Zhelezov listed several challenges, including ensuring efficient data partitioning and implementing enterprise-grade security measures in a decentralized space.

<blockquote data-ct-non-breakable="true">
