Bakery IA Platform - Consolidated Security Guides
Overview
This directory contains comprehensive, production-ready security documentation for the Bakery IA platform. Our infrastructure has been hardened from a D- security grade to an A- grade through systematic implementation of industry best practices.
Security Achievement Summary
- 15 databases secured (14 PostgreSQL + 1 Redis)
- 100% TLS encryption for all database connections
- Strong authentication with 32-character cryptographic passwords
- Data persistence with PersistentVolumeClaims preventing data loss
- Audit logging enabled for all database operations
- Compliance ready for GDPR, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2
Security Grade Improvement
| Metric | Before | After |
|---|---|---|
| Overall Grade | D- | A- |
| Critical Issues | 4 | 0 |
| High-Risk Issues | 3 | 0 |

Documentation Guides
1. Database Security Guide
Complete guide to database security implementation
Covers database inventory, authentication, encryption (transit & rest), data persistence, backups, audit logging, compliance status, and troubleshooting.
Best for: Understanding overall database security, troubleshooting database issues, backup procedures
2. RBAC Implementation Guide
Role-Based Access Control across all microservices
Covers role hierarchy (4 roles), subscription tiers (3 tiers), service-by-service access matrix (250+ endpoints), implementation code examples, and testing strategies.
Best for: Implementing access control, understanding subscription limits, securing API endpoints
3. TLS Configuration Guide
Detailed TLS/SSL setup and configuration
Covers certificate infrastructure, PostgreSQL TLS setup, Redis TLS setup, client configuration, deployment procedures, verification, and certificate rotation.
Best for: Setting up TLS encryption, certificate management, diagnosing TLS connection issues
4. Security Checklist
Production deployment and verification checklist
Covers pre-deployment prep, phased deployment (weeks 1-6), verification procedures, post-deployment tasks, maintenance schedules, and emergency procedures.
Best for: Production deployment, security audits, ongoing maintenance planning
Quick Start
For Developers
- Authentication: All services use JWT tokens
- Authorization: Use role decorators from
shared/auth/access_control.py - Database: Connections automatically use TLS
- Secrets: Never commit credentials - use Kubernetes secrets
For Operations
- TLS Certificates: Stored in
infrastructure/tls/ - Backup Script:
scripts/encrypted-backup.sh - Password Rotation:
scripts/generate-passwords.sh - Monitoring: Check audit logs regularly

- Refresh token rotation
- Password hashing with bcrypt
Authorization
- Hierarchical role system (Viewer → Member → Admin → Owner)
- Subscription tier-based feature gating
- Resource-level permissions
- Tenant isolation
Data Protection
- TLS 1.2+ for all connections
- AES-256 encryption for secrets at rest
- pgcrypto for sensitive column encryption
- Encrypted backups with GPG
Monitoring & Auditing

Common Security Tasks
Rotate Database Passwords
# Generate new passwords
./scripts/generate-passwords.sh
# Update environment files
./scripts/update-env-passwords.sh
# Update Kubernetes secrets
./scripts/update-k8s-secrets.sh
Create Encrypted Backup
# Backup all databases
./scripts/encrypted-backup.sh
# Restore specific database
gpg --decrypt backup_file.sql.gz.gpg | gunzip | psql -U user -d database
Regenerate TLS Certificates
# Regenerate all certificates (before expiry)
cd infrastructure/tls
./generate-certificates.sh
# Update Kubernetes secrets
./scripts/create-tls-secrets.sh
Security Best Practices
For Developers
- Never hardcode credentials - Use environment variables
- Always use role decorators on sensitive endpoints
- Validate input - Prevent SQL injection and XSS
- Log security events - Failed auth, permission denied
- Use parameterized queries - Never concatenate SQL
- Implement rate limiting - Prevent brute force attacks
For Operations
- Rotate passwords regularly - Every 90 days
- Monitor audit logs - Check for suspicious activity
- Keep certificates current - Renew before expiry
- Test backups - Verify restoration procedures
- Update dependencies - Apply security patches
- Review access - Remove unused accounts
Incident Response
Security Incident Checklist
- Identify the scope and impact
- Contain the threat (disable compromised accounts)
- Eradicate the vulnerability
- Recover affected systems
- Document the incident
- Review and improve security measures
Emergency Contacts
- Security incidents should be reported immediately
- Check audit logs:
/var/log/postgresql/in database pods - Review application logs for suspicious patterns
