138+## Heightened security practices
139+
140+A common security pattern is to have "hot" and "cold" wallets. For higher value
141+points such as stars and galaxies, you may consider having your ownership
142+address live on a "cold" wallet that never touches an
143+internet-connected computer, and the various proxies on a "hot" wallet that is
144+permitted to connect to internet-connected devices. This could be accomplished
145+with multiple hardware wallets, a combination of paper and hardware wallet, a
146+hardware cold wallet and Metamask hot wallet, etc.
147+
148+One tool useful for this setup is `claz`, located at `app/claz.hoon`. `claz` is
149+used for making and signing Bridge transactions from an offline computer. A
150+guide to using `claz` is forthcoming.
