# APIs
|
|
|
|
The Lighthouse `beacon_node` provides two APIs for local consumption:
|
|
|
|
- A [RESTful JSON HTTP API](http.html) which provides beacon chain, node and network
|
|
information.
|
|
- A read-only [WebSocket API](websockets.html) providing beacon chain events, as they occur.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Security
|
|
|
|
These endpoints are not designed to be exposed to the public Internet or
|
|
untrusted users. They may pose a considerable DoS attack vector when used improperly.
