Say no to local installation.
First of all, What qualifies as a local installation? Local installation occurs when you download miner software directly from the internet or copy it to a personal device that uses your mobile or home network. Even with the proper firewall rules or security updates; The following becomes a real problem within a local install.

Privilege Escalation: Miners often run with admin/root access exposing your system to full takeover.
Malicious Forks: Open-source miners can be weaponized with backdoors or malware.
Botnet Risk: Compromised miners become zombie nodes in global botnets.
Network Exposure: Mining pools often use unencrypted protocols, leaking IP and system metadata.

Installing miner software directly, is like giving a stranger your house keys and hoping they only use the fridge.

Do not trade security for efficiency.
Within the realm of crypto mining, All things are considered. Costs, hardware, the environment, security, and longevity. Anyone who buys into fast and expensive, will still find themselves paying much more than the light bill. Do not buy into the hype of supposed quick gains. What ASIC mining offers, in the end, is only the hope of generosity. But nothing made fast, lasts. Lets delve into the real security issues of ASIC Machines.

Closed Firmware: Most ASICs run proprietary code you cant inspect.
Mystery Connections: Some ASICs silently connect to unknown servers--encrypted, undocumented, and persistent.
Supply Chain Risks: Rogue firmware or implants can be introduced during
manufacturing via third party entities or unverified resellers.
No Patch Discipline: Vulnerabilities in ASIC firmware often go unpatched for years.

ASICs are black boxes-- efficient miners with stealthy connections you'll never fully trace. A backdoor you cant see, where the intruders are the only ones with keys.
