After your node is properly added, you will be qualified for a set of credentials, coupled with instructions on what to change on your ChainLink node. This process allows a connection that pushes live updates to the explorer.

Badge System
The new update made to the market adds a new backend system to support tagging and badges that recognize nodes that abide by security guidelines.
The update also related that the badge system goes beyond nodes. It will also enhance transparency, confidence at the adapter and data source level.
Tracking Reviewed and Managed Nodes

The maintenance of the first tracking and identification of the reviewed nodes was done via the official ChainLink documentation.
