## 📦 Deployment Instructions

### 1. Copy Certificates to Services

```bash
# Create certificate directories
sudo mkdir -p /etc/foxhunt/certs

# Copy certificates
sudo cp /tmp/foxhunt/certs/* /etc/foxhunt/certs/

# Set proper permissions
sudo chmod 600 /etc/foxhunt/certs/*.key
sudo chmod 644 /etc/foxhunt/certs/*.crt

# Set ownership (if running as dedicated user)
sudo chown foxhunt:foxhunt /etc/foxhunt/certs/*
```

### 2. Configure Services

**Trading Service** (`services/trading_service/config/tls.toml`):
```toml
[tls]
enabled = true
cert_path = "/etc/foxhunt/certs/trading-service.crt"
key_path = "/etc/foxhunt/certs/trading-service.key"
ca_cert_path = "/etc/foxhunt/certs/ca.crt"
require_client_auth = true
```

**API Gateway** (`services/api_gateway/config/tls.toml`):
```toml
[tls]
enabled = true
cert_path = "/etc/foxhunt/certs/api-gateway.crt"
key_path = "/etc/foxhunt/certs/api-gateway.key"
ca_cert_path = "/etc/foxhunt/certs/ca.crt"
require_client_auth = true
```

**Backtesting Service** (`services/backtesting_service/config/tls.toml`):
```toml
[tls]
enabled = true
cert_path = "/etc/foxhunt/certs/backtesting-service.crt"
key_path = "/etc/foxhunt/certs/backtesting-service.key"
ca_cert_path = "/etc/foxhunt/certs/ca.crt"
require_client_auth = false
```

**ML Training Service** (`services/ml_training_service/config/tls.toml`):
```toml
[tls]
enabled = true
cert_path = "/etc/foxhunt/certs/ml-training-service.crt"
key_path = "/etc/foxhunt/certs/ml-training-service.key"
ca_cert_path = "/etc/foxhunt/certs/ca.crt"
require_client_auth = false
```

### 3. Client Configuration

**TLI Client** needs the CA certificate to trust the services:
```toml
[tls]
ca_cert_path = "/etc/foxhunt/certs/ca.crt"
verify_server = true
```

## 🔍 Certificate Verification Commands

### Verify Certificate Details
```bash
# View certificate information
openssl x509 -in /tmp/foxhunt/certs/trading-service.crt -noout -text

# Check validity period
openssl x509 -in /tmp/foxhunt/certs/trading-service.crt -noout -dates

# Verify certificate chain
openssl verify -CAfile /tmp/foxhunt/certs/ca.crt /tmp/foxhunt/certs/trading-service.crt

# Check SAN entries
openssl x509 -in /tmp/foxhunt/certs/trading-service.crt -noout -text | grep -A 1 "Subject Alternative Name"

# Display certificate fingerprint
openssl x509 -in /tmp/foxhunt/certs/trading-service.crt -noout -fingerprint -sha256
```

### Test TLS Connection
```bash
# Test server certificate
openssl s_client -connect localhost:50051 \
  -CAfile /tmp/foxhunt/certs/ca.crt \
  -cert /tmp/foxhunt/certs/trading-service.crt \
  -key /tmp/foxhunt/certs/trading-service.key

# Verify TLS handshake
openssl s_client -connect localhost:50051 -showcerts
```

## 🔄 Certificate Rotation Plan

### Rotation Schedule
- **Service Certificates**: Rotate every 90 days (current validity: 365 days)
- **CA Certificate**: Rotate every 5 years (current validity: 10 years)

### Rotation Process

1. **Pre-Rotation Checklist**
   - [ ] Verify new certificates 30 days before expiration
   - [ ] Generate new certificates with same SAN configuration
   - [ ] Test certificates in staging environment
   - [ ] Schedule maintenance window

2. **Rotation Steps**
   ```bash
   # Generate new certificates
   cd /tmp/foxhunt/certs
   ./generate_service_certs.sh --renew

   # Deploy to services with zero-downtime
   for service in trading api-gateway backtesting ml-training; do
       sudo systemctl reload foxhunt-${service}
   done
   ```

3. **Post-Rotation Verification**
   - [ ] Verify all services are using new certificates
   - [ ] Check certificate expiration dates
   - [ ] Test client connections
   - [ ] Monitor logs for TLS errors

---

## 📊 Certificate Monitoring

### Expiration Monitoring Script

```bash
#!/bin/bash
# Check certificate expiration

CERT_DIR="/etc/foxhunt/certs"
WARN_DAYS=30

for cert in ${CERT_DIR}/*.crt; do
    EXPIRY=$(openssl x509 -in "$cert" -noout -enddate | cut -d= -f2)
    EXPIRY_EPOCH=$(date -d "$EXPIRY" +%s)
    NOW_EPOCH=$(date +%s)
    DAYS_LEFT=$(( ($EXPIRY_EPOCH - $NOW_EPOCH) / 86400 ))

    if [ $DAYS_LEFT -lt $WARN_DAYS ]; then
        echo "WARNING: $cert expires in $DAYS_LEFT days"
    else
        echo "OK: $cert expires in $DAYS_LEFT days"
    fi
done
```

### Prometheus Metrics

```yaml
# Certificate expiration metrics
tls_certificate_expiry_seconds{service="trading"} 1728000000
tls_certificate_expiry_seconds{service="api-gateway"} 1728000000
tls_certificate_expiry_seconds{service="backtesting"} 1728000000
tls_certificate_expiry_seconds{service="ml-training"} 1728000000
```

## ⚠️ Security Considerations

### Production Deployment
1. **Self-Signed Certificates**: These are development certificates. For production:
   - Use certificates from a trusted CA (Let's Encrypt, DigiCert, etc.)
   - Or implement Vault PKI for internal certificate management
   - Or use AWS Certificate Manager for cloud deployments

2. **Key Protection**:
   - Store private keys in secure location (Vault, AWS KMS, HSM)
   - Never commit private keys to version control
   - Rotate keys regularly (90-day cycle recommended)
   - Use hardware security modules (HSM) for CA key

3. **Certificate Pinning**:
   - Implement certificate pinning in clients for critical services
   - Pin CA certificate fingerprint in client configuration
   - Monitor for certificate changes in production

4. **Mutual TLS (mTLS)**:
   - Enabled for trading service (requires client certificates)
   - Optional for backtesting and ML services
   - Client certificates should have shorter validity (30-90 days)
