# Security Enhancements ## Overview This PR implements comprehensive security improvements across the codebase, focusing on authentication, authorization, audit logging, and secure data handling. ## Changes ### 1. Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) - Implemented granular permission system with predefined roles (Admin, User, Viewer, Operator) - Added role assignment tracking with metadata (assignment time, assigner, last access) - Implemented rate limiting and automatic lockout after failed attempts - Added role usage monitoring and audit trail ### 2. Audit Logging System - Created secure audit logging with JSON formatting - Implemented log rotation based on size and age - Added comprehensive event tracking including: - User actions - Resource access - Authentication attempts - System events - Included IP address and user agent tracking ### 3. Secrets Management - Implemented secure secrets storage with AES-GCM encryption - Added in-memory caching with mutex protection - Implemented secure file-based persistence - Added encryption key validation and management ### 4. TLS Configuration - Enhanced TLS configuration with secure defaults - Added certificate validation and verification - Implemented secure cipher suite selection - Added certificate file permission checks ### 5. API Security - Added rate limiting per IP and globally - Implemented comprehensive security headers - Added input validation and sanitization - Enhanced error handling and logging ## Security Impact These changes significantly improve the security posture of the application by: - Preventing unauthorized access through RBAC - Detecting and preventing brute force attacks - Ensuring secure communication through TLS - Providing audit trail for security events - Protecting sensitive data through encryption ## Testing - Added unit tests for RBAC functionality - Implemented integration tests for audit logging - Added security headers validation - Tested rate limiting functionality ## Dependencies No new external dependencies were added. ## Breaking Changes None. These changes are backward compatible. ## Checklist - [x] Code follows project style guidelines - [x] All tests pass - [x] Documentation updated - [x] Security headers properly configured - [x] Rate limiting tested - [x] Audit logging verified - [x] Secrets management tested - [x] TLS configuration validated ## Related Issues Closes #XXX (if applicable) ## Additional Notes The implementation includes proper error handling, logging, and documentation. All security-related configurations can be customized through environment variables or configuration files. Signed-off-by: bhaskarvilles <[email protected]>
