Phase 1: Security Hardening (P0 - CRITICAL)

1.1 Generate Production Secrets (1 hour)

• PostgreSQL Password

  # Generate 32-character password
  openssl rand -base64 32 | tr -d "=+/" | cut -c1-32
  # Update docker-compose.yml POSTGRES_PASSWORD
  # Update .env DATABASE_URL
  

• Redis AUTH Password

  # Generate password
  openssl rand -base64 32 | tr -d "=+/" | cut -c1-32
  # Update docker-compose.yml: redis-server --requirepass <password>
  # Update .env REDIS_URL
  

• JWT Secret (256-bit)

  # Generate JWT secret
  openssl rand -base64 32
  # Update .env JWT_SECRET
  

• Grafana Admin Password

  # Generate password
  openssl rand -base64 24
  # Update docker-compose.yml GF_SECURITY_ADMIN_PASSWORD
  

• Document all passwords in secure password manager (1Password/Vault)

1.2 Configure Vault for Production (2 hours)

• Disable Dev Mode

  # docker-compose.yml - Remove dev mode command
  vault:
    command: vault server -config=/vault/config/vault.hcl
    volumes:
      - ./config/vault/vault.hcl:/vault/config/vault.hcl:ro
      - vault_data:/vault/file
  

• Create Vault Configuration

  # config/vault/vault.hcl
  storage "raft" {
    path    = "/vault/file"
    node_id = "node1"
  }
  
  listener "tcp" {
    address     = "0.0.0.0:8200"
    tls_disable = "false"
    tls_cert_file = "/vault/tls/vault-cert.pem"
    tls_key_file  = "/vault/tls/vault-key.pem"
  }
  
  api_addr = "https://vault:8200"
  cluster_addr = "https://vault:8201"
  ui = true
  

• Initialize Vault

  docker exec -it foxhunt-vault vault operator init -key-shares=5 -key-threshold=3
  # CRITICAL: Save all 5 unseal keys and root token securely
  # Store keys in 3+ different physical/cloud locations
  

• Unseal Vault

  docker exec -it foxhunt-vault vault operator unseal <key-1>
  docker exec -it foxhunt-vault vault operator unseal <key-2>
  docker exec -it foxhunt-vault vault operator unseal <key-3>
  docker exec -it foxhunt-vault vault status
  

• Create Vault Policies

  # API Gateway policy (read-only)
  vault policy write api-gateway - <<EOF
  path "secret/data/foxhunt/api-gateway/*" {
    capabilities = ["read", "list"]
  }
  EOF
  
  # Trading Service policy
  vault policy write trading-service - <<EOF
  path "secret/data/foxhunt/trading/*" {
    capabilities = ["read", "list"]
  }
  EOF
  

• Migrate Secrets to Vault

  vault kv put secret/foxhunt/database \
    url="postgresql://foxhunt:<new-password>@postgres:5432/foxhunt"
  vault kv put secret/foxhunt/redis \
    url="redis://:<new-password>@redis:6379"
  vault kv put secret/foxhunt/jwt \
    secret="<jwt-secret>" \
    issuer="foxhunt-api-gateway" \
    audience="foxhunt-services"
  

1.3 Enable TLS/mTLS (1 hour)

• Generate Production Certificates (if not using trusted CA)

  # Option 1: Use existing certs in ./certs/
  # Option 2: Generate new production certs
  cd certs

• Enable TLS in docker-compose.yml

  environment:
    - TLS_ENABLED=true
    - TLS_PROTOCOL_VERSION=TLS13

    -key ./certs/client-key.pem \
    api_gateway:50051 list
  

1.4 Configure Database Backups (2 hours)

• PostgreSQL Backup Script

  # Create /scripts/backup-postgres.sh
  #!/bin/bash
  BACKUP_DIR="/backups/postgres"
  DATE=$(date +%Y%m%d_%H%M%S)
  
  # Full backup
  docker exec foxhunt-postgres pg_basebackup \
    -U foxhunt -D /tmp/backup -F tar -z -P
  
  # Copy to S3/MinIO
  docker exec foxhunt-postgres tar -czf - /tmp/backup | \
    docker exec -i foxhunt-minio mc pipe minio/backups/postgres-${DATE}.tar.gz
  
  # WAL archiving (continuous)
  docker exec foxhunt-postgres \
    psql -U foxhunt -c "SELECT pg_start_backup('daily-backup');"
  

• Configure WAL Archiving in PostgreSQL

  -- Add to postgresql.conf
  archive_mode = on
  archive_command = 'mc pipe minio/backups/wal/%f < %p'
  wal_level = replica
  max_wal_senders = 3
