13) Integration Security guidelines

15-Jan-15

This note will research how information is sent and received from an enterprise. What is channel level security? what is message level security? What is SSL? What is Mutual Auth? What are certificates? How is this handled in SOAP? How is this handled in REST? and perhaps more on those lines.

With this research I have learned what PKI is, What public and private keys are, what signatures are, what certificates are, what CA certificates, what SSL certificates are, how web servers manage their certificates, how web browsers manage their CA certificates, what self signing is, and more...

15) Message Level Security in Web APIs

15-Jan-15

This note explores the differences between Channel security through SSL and Certificates and Message level security that may ride on top of that channel level security

This research is a continuation of the research from general security guidelines research that is done prior to this. This earlier research talks about PKI, SSL, Digital Certs, https etc.

Docker is an OS (especially Linux at the moment) level facility/technology that can build OS images dedicated all the way to the application level in multiple layers. Developers will build docker application images instead of application packages where by the application images are stand alone and can run on any hardware on *any* OS. The images are layered and can be shared publicly or privately. Docker provides the verbs and scripts necessary to build, deploy, and monitor application images running in containers on a native OS. Docker containers are significantly lightweight compared to virtual machines making distributed, scalable, multi-tenanted computing engines in the cloud effective and efficient.

Kubernetes establishes robust declarative primitives for maintaining the desired state requested by the user. We see these primitives as the main value added by Kubernetes. Self-healing mechanisms, such as auto-restarting, re-scheduling, and replicating containers require active controllers, not just imperative orchestration.
