## Implementation Details
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. SecurityConfig Enforcement
|
||||
|
||||
**File**: `/home/tony/chorus/project-queues/active/BZZZ/pkg/crypto/key_manager.go`
|
||||
|
||||
#### Key Features:
|
||||
- **Automated Key Rotation**: Configurable rotation intervals via `SecurityConfig.KeyRotationDays`
|
||||
- **Warning System**: Generates alerts 7 days before key expiration
|
||||
- **Overdue Detection**: Identifies keys past rotation deadline
|
||||
- **Scheduler Integration**: Automatic rotation job scheduling for all roles
|
||||
|
||||
#### Security Controls:
|
||||
```go
|
||||
// Rotation interval enforcement
|
||||
rotationInterval := time.Duration(km.config.Security.KeyRotationDays) * 24 * time.Hour
|
||||
|
||||
// Daily monitoring for rotation due dates
|
||||
go km.monitorKeyRotationDue()
|
||||
|
||||
// Warning generation for approaching expiration
|
||||
if keyAge >= warningThreshold {
|
||||
km.logKeyRotationWarning("key_rotation_due_soon", keyMeta.KeyID, keyMeta.RoleID, metadata)
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Compliance Features:
|
||||
- **Audit Trail**: All rotation events logged with timestamps and reason codes
|
||||
- **Policy Validation**: Ensures rotation policies align with security requirements
|
||||
- **Emergency Override**: Manual rotation capability for security incidents
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Comprehensive Audit Logging
|
||||
|
||||
**File**: `/home/tony/chorus/project-queues/active/BZZZ/pkg/dht/encrypted_storage.go`
|
||||
|
||||
#### Audit Coverage:
|
||||
- **Store Operations**: Content creation, role validation, encryption metadata
|
||||
- **Retrieve Operations**: Access requests, decryption attempts, success/failure
|
||||
- **Announce Operations**: Content announcements, authority validation
|
||||
|
||||
#### Audit Data Points:
|
||||
```go
|
||||
auditEntry := map[string]interface{}{
|
||||
"timestamp": time.Now(),
|
||||
"operation": "store|retrieve|announce",
|
||||
"node_id": eds.nodeID,
|
||||
"ucxl_address": ucxlAddress,
|
||||
"role": currentRole,
|
||||
"success": success,
|
||||
"error_message": errorMsg,
|
||||
"audit_trail": uniqueTrailIdentifier,
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Security Features:
|
||||
- **Tamper-Proof**: Immutable audit entries with integrity hashes
|
||||
- **Real-Time**: Synchronous logging prevents event loss
|
||||
- **Structured Format**: JSON format enables automated analysis
|
||||
- **Retention**: Configurable retention policies for compliance
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Role-Based Access Policy Framework
|
||||
|
||||
**Implementation**: Comprehensive access control matrix with authority-level enforcement
|
||||
|
||||
#### Authority Hierarchy:
|
||||
1. **Master (Admin)**: Full system access, can decrypt all content
|
||||
2. **Decision**: Can make permanent decisions, store/announce content
|
||||
3. **Coordination**: Can coordinate across roles, limited announce capability
|
||||
4. **Suggestion**: Can suggest and store, no announce capability
|
||||
5. **Read-Only**: Observer access only, no content creation
|
||||
|
||||
#### Policy Enforcement Points:
|
||||
```go
|
||||
// Store Operation Check
|
||||
func checkStoreAccessPolicy(creatorRole, ucxlAddress, contentType string) error {
|
||||
if role.AuthorityLevel == config.AuthorityReadOnly {
|
||||
return fmt.Errorf("role %s has read-only authority and cannot store content", creatorRole)
|
||||
}
|
||||
return nil
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Announce Operation Check
|
||||
func checkAnnounceAccessPolicy(currentRole, ucxlAddress string) error {
|
||||
if role.AuthorityLevel == config.AuthorityReadOnly || role.AuthorityLevel == config.AuthoritySuggestion {
|
||||
return fmt.Errorf("role %s lacks authority to announce content", currentRole)
|
||||
}
|
||||
return nil
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Advanced Features:
|
||||
- **Dynamic Validation**: Real-time role authority checking
|
||||
- **Policy Hooks**: Extensible framework for custom policies
|
||||
- **Denial Logging**: All access denials logged for security analysis
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Security Monitoring and Alerting
|
||||
|
||||
#### Warning Generation:
|
||||
- **Key Rotation Overdue**: Critical alerts for expired keys
|
||||
- **Key Rotation Due Soon**: Preventive warnings 7 days before expiration
|
||||
- **Audit Logging Disabled**: Security risk warnings
|
||||
- **Policy Violations**: Access control breach notifications
|
||||
|
||||
#### Event Types:
|
||||
- **security_warning**: Configuration and policy warnings
|
||||
- **key_rotation_overdue**: Critical key rotation alerts
|
||||
- **key_rotation_due_soon**: Preventive rotation reminders
|
||||
- **access_denied**: Policy enforcement events
|
||||
- **security_event**: General security-related events
|
||||
|
||||
