Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) Overview - 0 views

  • A PKI allows you to bind public keys (contained in SSL certificates) with a person in a way that allows you to trust the certificate.
  • Public Key Infrastructures, like the one used to secure the Internet, most commonly use a Certificate Authority (also called a Registration Authority) to verify the identity of an entity and create unforgeable certificates.
  • An SSL Certificate Authority (also called a trusted third party or CA) is an organization that issues digital certificates to organizations or individuals after verifying their identity.
  • ...9 more annotations...
  • An SSL Certificate provides assurances that we are talking to the right server, but the assurances are limited.
  • In PKI, trust simply means that a certificate can be validated by a CA that is in our trust store.
  • An SSL Certificate in a PKI is a digital document containing a public key, entity information, and a digital signature from the certificate issuer.
  • it is much more practical and secure to establish a chain of trust to the Root certificate by signing an Intermediate certificate
  • A trust store is a collection of Root certificates that are trusted by default.
  • there are four primary trust stores that are relied upon for the majority of software: Apple, Microsoft, Chrome, and Mozilla.
  • a revocation system that allows a certificate to be listed as invalid if it was improperly issued or if the private key has been compromised.
  • Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP)
  • Certificate Revocation List (CRL)

BIND9 named.conf Zone Transfer and Update statements - 0 views

  • update-policy only applies to, and may only appear in, zone clauses. This statement defines the rules by which DDNS updates may be carried. It may only be used with a key (TSIG or SIG(0)) which is used to cryptographically sign each update request. It is mutually exclusive with allow-update in any single zone clause. The statement may take the keyword local or an update-policy-rule structure. The keyword local is designed to simplify configuration of secure updates using a TSIG key and limits the update source only to localhost (loopback address, 127.0.0.1 or ::1), thus both nsupdate (or any other application using DDNS) and the name server being updated must reside on the same host.

Think Before you NodePort in Kubernetes - Oteemo - 0 views

  • Two options are provided for Services intended for external use: a NodePort, or a LoadBalancer
  • no built-in cloud load balancers for Kubernetes in bare-metal environments
  • NodePort may not be your best choice.
  • ...15 more annotations...
  • NodePort, by design, bypasses almost all network security in Kubernetes.
  • NetworkPolicy resources can currently only control NodePorts by allowing or disallowing all traffic on them.
  • put a network filter in front of all the nodes
  • if a Nodeport-ranged Service is advertised to the public, it may serve as an invitation to black-hats to scan and probe
  • When Kubernetes creates a NodePort service, it allocates a port from a range specified in the flags that define your Kubernetes cluster. (By default, these are ports ranging from 30000-32767.)
  • By design, Kubernetes NodePort cannot expose standard low-numbered ports like 80 and 443, or even 8080 and 8443.
  • A port in the NodePort range can be specified manually, but this would mean the creation of a list of non-standard ports, cross-referenced with the applications they map to
  • if you want the exposed application to be highly available, everything contacting the application has to know all of your node addresses, or at least more than one.
  • non-standard ports.
  • Ingress resources use an Ingress controller (the nginx one is common but not by any means the only choice) and an external load balancer or public IP to enable path-based routing of external requests to internal Services.
  • With a single point of entry to expose and secure
  • get simpler TLS management!
  • consider putting a real load balancer in front of your NodePort Services before opening them up to the world
  • Google very recently released an alpha-stage bare-metal load balancer that, once installed in your cluster, will load-balance using BGP
  • NodePort Services are easy to create but hard to secure, hard to manage, and not especially friendly to others

Production environment | Kubernetes - 0 views

  • to promote an existing cluster for production use
  • Separating the control plane from the worker nodes.
  • Having enough worker nodes available
  • ...22 more annotations...
  • You can use role-based access control (RBAC) and other security mechanisms to make sure that users and workloads can get access to the resources they need, while keeping workloads, and the cluster itself, secure. You can set limits on the resources that users and workloads can access by managing policies and container resources.
  • you need to plan how to scale to relieve increased pressure from more requests to the control plane and worker nodes or scale down to reduce unused resources.
  • Managed control plane: Let the provider manage the scale and availability of the cluster's control plane, as well as handle patches and upgrades.
  • The simplest Kubernetes cluster has the entire control plane and worker node services running on the same machine.
  • You can deploy a control plane using tools such as kubeadm, kops, and kubespray.
  • Secure communications between control plane services are implemented using certificates.
  • Certificates are automatically generated during deployment or you can generate them using your own certificate authority.
  • Separate and backup etcd service: The etcd services can either run on the same machines as other control plane services or run on separate machines
  • Create multiple control plane systems: For high availability, the control plane should not be limited to a single machine
  • Some deployment tools set up Raft consensus algorithm to do leader election of Kubernetes services. If the primary goes away, another service elects itself and take over.
  • Groups of zones are referred to as regions.
  • if you installed with kubeadm, there are instructions to help you with Certificate Management and Upgrading kubeadm clusters.
  • Production-quality workloads need to be resilient and anything they rely on needs to be resilient (such as CoreDNS).
  • Add nodes to the cluster: If you are managing your own cluster you can add nodes by setting up your own machines and either adding them manually or having them register themselves to the cluster’s apiserver.
  • Set up node health checks: For important workloads, you want to make sure that the nodes and pods running on those nodes are healthy.
  • Authentication: The apiserver can authenticate users using client certificates, bearer tokens, an authenticating proxy, or HTTP basic auth.
  • Authorization: When you set out to authorize your regular users, you will probably choose between RBAC and ABAC authorization.
  • Role-based access control (RBAC): Lets you assign access to your cluster by allowing specific sets of permissions to authenticated users. Permissions can be assigned for a specific namespace (Role) or across the entire cluster (ClusterRole).
  • Attribute-based access control (ABAC): Lets you create policies based on resource attributes in the cluster and will allow or deny access based on those attributes.
  • Set limits on workload resources
  • Set namespace limits: Set per-namespace quotas on things like memory and CPU
  • Prepare for DNS demand: If you expect workloads to massively scale up, your DNS service must be ready to scale up as well.

      Cluster Networking 所關注處理的是: Pod 到 Pod 之間的連線
  • Pod-to-Service communications
  • External-to-Service communications
  • Kubernetes is all about sharing machines between applications.
  • sharing machines requires ensuring that two applications do not try to use the same ports.
  • Dynamic port allocation brings a lot of complications to the system
  • Every Pod gets its own IP address
  • do not need to explicitly create links between Pods
  • almost never need to deal with mapping container ports to host ports.
  • Pods can be treated much like VMs or physical hosts from the perspectives of port allocation, naming, service discovery, load balancing, application configuration, and migration.
  • pods on a node can communicate with all pods on all nodes without NAT
  • agents on a node (e.g. system daemons, kubelet) can communicate with all pods on that node
  • pods in the host network of a node can communicate with all pods on all nodes without NAT

  • containers within a Pod share their network namespaces - including their IP address
  • containers within a Pod can all reach each other’s ports on localhost
  • containers within a Pod must coordinate port usage
  • “IP-per-pod” model.

BearSSL - 0 views

shared by crazylion lee on 11 Nov 16 - No Cached
  •  
    "BearSSL is an implementation of the SSL/TLS protocol (RFC 5246) written in C. It aims at offering the following features: Be correct and secure. In particular, insecure protocol versions and choices of algorithms are not supported, by design; cryptographic algorithm implementations are constant-time by default. Be small, both in RAM and code footprint. For instance, a minimal server implementation may fit in about 20 kilobytes of compiled code and 25 kilobytes of RAM. Be highly portable. BearSSL targets not only "big" operating systems like Linux and Windows, but also small embedded systems and even special contexts like bootstrap code. Be feature-rich and extensible. SSL/TLS has many defined cipher suites and extensions; BearSSL should implement most of them, and allow extra algorithm implementations to be added afterwards, possibly from third parties."

  • Certificate Signing Request.
  • Some applications can generate these for submission to certificate-authorities
  • These get signed by the CA and a certificate is returned
  • ...15 more annotations...
  • The returned certificate is the public certificate (which includes the public key but not the private key), which itself can be in a couple of formats.
  • this is a container format that may include just the public certificate (such as with Apache installs, and CA certificate files /etc/ssl/certs), or may include an entire certificate chain including public key, private key, and root certificates
  • Privacy Enhanced Mail (PEM), a failed method for secure email but the container format it used lives on
  • This is a PEM formatted file containing just the private-key of a specific certificate and is merely a conventional name and not a standardized one.
  • The rights on these files are very important
  • /etc/ssl/private
  • OpenSSL can convert these to .pem
  • .cert .cer .crt A .pem (or rarely .der) formatted file with a different extension
  • there are four different ways to present certificates and their components
  • used preferentially by open-source software
  • It can have a variety of extensions (.pem, .key, .cer, .cert, more)
  • The parent format of PEM
  • a binary version of the base64-encoded PEM file.
  • PEM on it's own isn't a certificate, it's just a way of encoding data
  • X.509 certificates are one type of data that is commonly encoded using PEM.

  • to perform network address translation (NAT) for instances that have been assigned public IPv4 addresses
  • Ensure that instances in your subnet have a globally unique IP address (public IPv4 address, Elastic IP address, or IPv6 address)
  • ...10 more annotations...
  • To use an internet gateway, your subnet's route table must contain a route that directs internet-bound traffic to the internet gateway.
  • If your subnet is associated with a route table that has a route to an internet gateway, it's known as a public subnet.
  • To enable communication over the internet for IPv4, your instance must have a public IPv4 address or an Elastic IP address that's associated with a private IPv4 address on your instance.
  • Your instance is only aware of the private (internal) IP address space defined within the VPC and subnet
  • internet gateway logically provides the one-to-one NAT on behalf of your instance
  • To enable communication over the internet for IPv6, your VPC and subnet must have an associated IPv6 CIDR block, and your instance must be assigned an IPv6 address from the range of the subnet.
  • When you create a subnet, we automatically associate it with the main route table for the VPC.
  • the main route table doesn't contain a route to an internet gateway
  • Each instance that you launch into a VPC is automatically associated with its default security group.
  • a default security group allow no inbound traffic from the internet and allow all outbound traffic to the internet.
