Ensure Encryption at Rest Keys Are Managed by an External KMS and Retrieved at Startup

AltaNível 1Revisão manualcockroachdb

Descrição

CockroachDB supports the use of external key management systems (KMS), such as HashiCorp Vault, to securely manage and deliver encryption keys used for encryption at rest. External key managers provide a centralized and auditable way to store and rotate keys and supply them dynamically to CockroachDB at startup.

Como é verificado

Método de auditoria: Revisão manual

Esta recomendação não pode ser verificada automaticamente. Uma varredura a lista com estas instruções quando você passa --include-manual.

Run ps -ef | grep -- "--enterprise-encryption": every encrypted store must have --enterprise-encryption=path=...,key=...,old-key=...,rotation-period=... Check the systemd unit and wrapper scripts (grep -Ri vault /etc/cockroach /etc/systemd/system) to confirm the store key is fetched from an external KMS (e.g. Vault) at startup rather than kept on the data volume.

Como é corrigido

Método de correção: Orientação ou patch de infraestrutura

1. Deploy or connect to a supported key management system: Such as HashiCorp Vault, AWS KMS, or another trusted external provider. 2. Configure the Systemd Service to enable encryption: Edit the service file at /etc/systemd/system/cockroach.service.
