Anything CODE says is Role Play, and shouldn't be taken seriously.
So the answer is very simple, and you can absolutely continue solo play. You are not 'fully safe' anywhere, but you can take precautions to ensure that such a thing won't happen so often (if at all).
So, add the alliance "CODE." as a contact, and set them to -10.0. When they appear in Local, they'll have a red mark on their portrait, and you'll be able to see it, so you'll know what they're going to do. Dock up preemptively.
But the biggest thing you can do is don't be fully AFK. Check your D-Scan every now and then, and browse Local when you feel like it for players with Negative Security Status (positive Security Status players can still gank you, but it's less likely. You always lose Security Status with Highsec ganks).
Stay aligned (facing) [insert celestial object here] so you can warp out quickly when you see someone on grid.
Getting a Procurer or a Skiff is also a good idea. Do you need a new Barge? |

So, no, it is a sandbox game, you are able to do whatever you want, it is not illegal to mine in any part of New Eden. People can of course kill you... Anywhere. So it's up to you to be prepared in advance, and predict the situation ahead.
You can 'be safe,' but don't think it is a given right. |

It's a PVP game, people will PVP. It's also an MMO, meaning that other players will affect your attempts at solo play. Finally, the game has been out for 10 years, and it's been like this for 10 years, so that gives you an idea of the chances you may have to change the game towards more protection for mining, if that's what you're looking for. |

I can't say that I don't feel sorry for you, but EVE provides the tools to PVP anywhere, with whoever, whether they like it or not.
Treat it as a learning experience, because you can't not make mistakes. Move onwards, I guess.
Tech I Mining Barge is fine, right? I don't... Really... Want to replace a Mackinaw. |

Because they attack players in high security, their own security ratings get shot to -10, and as such the NPC Navies do hunt them when they enter the space where you are. So they don't have much time to check your age, check your history, check wtf you're doing, and so on. They just see a juicy target (mining ship) and they take it out.
Sorry but you don't get special status. Nobody does. I'm an alt, flying an empty shuttle worth only 10k credits, nothing in the cargo, I got killed. What was the point? Certainly nothing to do with me or my ship, they were just looking for kills and fun.
This is the game. |

guys that ganked you gank for fun. if you buy a permit from them, they will take your isk then gank you.
if you mine in systems off the beaten path, you will be OK.
you can mine in null-sec, or in wormholes, both are safe if you use intel tools and are part of a corp. more profitable too.
EDIT - i highly recommend you join a null-sec group and mine in the deep back-end systems they have for this purpose. the profit is 3-4x the profit of high-sec minerals, you have access to regional intel tools, so someone shows up 5 jumps away you know about it. You can refine your ore in stations for a small tax i guess most corps take, then sell to that station or run high-end minerals to empire via wormhole chains yourself if you know how to scan. You will get ganked every now and again, but because you are mining high-end null-sec ore, you dont really care, you replace whatever was lost in 1 hour tops. |

You don't need a permit and being in a mining corp is counterproductive. Being AFK or not doesn't really matter.
The only thing you need to know is this. Be a harder to kill target than the other miners in your system. That's it.
The best way to do that is by training some shield skills and fitting a decent buffer tank. Also, keep in mind that some Exhumers are inherently harder to kill than others. The trade off is that they mine slower. A decent trade off in my opinion.
One other thing is to get out of populated systems. Find a nice backwater place that is 6 or 7 jumps from a trade hub and 3 or 4 jumps from low sec.

Yeah, there is no benefit for a hisec miner to join a corp, it will only expose them to wardecs and awoxers.
Judging from your kill mail, your tank skills must be pretty bad. You should probably work on those, along with fitting skills and other core skills. Maybe stick to the small tanky barge/exhumer in the meantime. And fit a damage control in one of the lowslots. |

The biggest problem with your statement is "how i should continue my solo mining career." Eve is not a solo game. It's a highly social MMO.
With that being said, you are always in danger at anything you do in Eve. I suggest you make some friends, pay attention to local and who lands on grid with you..and use d-scan. If you don't know what these things are or how to use them, that's exactly why Eve isn't a solo game. You need some friendly guidance and advice..but be careful, there are those who give bad advice to new players (assuming you are new).
Do not let the name "high security space" fool you into believing you are safe. Gl and fly safer.
