To protect these model checkpoints from unauthorized access, make sure the checkpoints are written out to an encrypted storage volume, and have a provision to delete checkpoints that are no longer needed. * When sharing trained models, or when receiving trained models from other parties, ensure that model artifacts are authenticated and integrity protected using cryptographic signatures, thus ensuring that the data received comes from trusted sources and has not been maliciously (or accidentally) modified in transit. @@ -21,4 +21,4 @@ It is highly recommended that the following best practices be followed when usin # Deployment Considerations The following are not MXNet framework specific threats but are applicable to Machine Learning models in general. -* When deploying high-value, proprietary models for inference, care should be taken to prevent an adversary from stealing the model.
