sos-vault is Secure
When dealing with sensitive Linux system reports, security is critical. sos-vault is designed with strong protections to ensure your data remains safe. Here’s how:
- End-to-End Encryption
From the moment you generate a sos-report, it is encrypted both in transit (while uploading it) and at rest. This ensures that no unauthorized party can access your data.
- Access Control
Only authorized users can view or download reports. sos-vault supports third-party authentication providers like Google, Facebook, and GitHub, eliminating the need for password-based logins and reducing security risks.
- Secure Storage
All stored reports are encrypted using industry-standard encryption algorithms. Even if someone gains access to the storage system, they cannot read the data without proper authorization. The default state for a user vault is closed. Only when the user logs in, the system will open the vault however after just five minutes of inactivity, the vault will automatically be closed again and no access to any of its content will be possible.
- Automatic Data Expiry
To minimize risks, document sharing and annotations expire and be automatically deleted after a period of 30 days, ensuring old data doesn’t become a security liability.
- Audit and Monitoring
sos-vault logs access and actions, allowing you to track who accessed which reports and when. This adds transparency and accountability.
- Minimal Attack Surface
sos-vault is designed with a focus on security best practices, including:
-
- Regular software updates to patch vulnerabilities.
- Limited exposure of services to the internet.
- Use of firewalls and security rules to prevent unauthorized access.
- Zero-Knowledge Architecture
sos-vault does not analyze or process your reports beyond storage and retrieval. Your data remains private, and even sos-vault administrators cannot access it.
Conclusion
sos-vault prioritizes security at every level to keep your Linux system reports safe. With strong encryption, controlled access, and built-in security measures, it ensures that sensitive support data remains protected.
