According to Odaily Planet Daily, Blockdaemon joined the release of the industry’s “first” Ethereum (ETH) Node Operator Risk Standard (NORS) certification, establishing a new benchmark for operational security and risk management for Ethereum node operators.

Additionally, Blockdaemon has now joined the NORS Development Working Group, which “collaborates in the development, iteration, and maintenance of the standard to keep it relevant and accurate.”

NORS certification is said to simplify "the due diligence process for banks and large institutions on Ethereum staking."
