4 1. Overview R-1 security mechanisms allw using Internet and Internet-based VPNs and WANs as efficient distributin channels withut the cncerns f data lss, pilferage r malicius impersnatin. R- 1 uses SSL end-t-end, making integratin with ther systems seamless. R-1 ffers the fllwing SSL features: Three levels f certificate authenticatin: Certificate level, Cmmn Name, Nne A chice f strng encryptin ciphers Private key-phrase prtectin Nte: SSL is enabled fr jbs using WAN r LFA transprt engines. When using SSL, all traffic in the jb, including snapsht generatin and file transfer, is encrypted. SSL cmmunicatin is supprted bth fr Cnsle Center cmmunicatin and Center Edge cmmunicatin. In a typical SSL sessin, the Server presents its digital certificate t the Client and the Client, in turn, presents the Server with its wn digital certificate. T successfully negtiate an SSL cnnectin, the Client and the Server must authenticate each ther. This type f authenticatin is referred t as mutual authenticatin. Bth the Client and the Server are required t have digital certificates frm trusted certificate authrities. When using mutual authenticatin, bth the Server and the Client need private keys and digital certificates that represent their identity. This type f authenticatin restricts access t trusted clients nly. Figure 1 SSL Tplgy Using R-1 fr Cnsle Center with SSL cmmunicatin, the Cnsle is the Client and the Center is the Server. Fr Center Edge SSL cmmunicatin (during a replicatin prcess), the Center is the Client and the Edge is the Server. 1

5 Overview Nte: Using SSL cnnectin fr bth Cnsle Center and Center Edge, the Center needs t be cnfigured twice: nce as an SSL Server and nce as an SSL Client. 2

6 2. SSL Intrductin R SSL prtcl prtects yur data frm tampering and prvides the fllwing security features: Cnfidentiality Integrity Authenticatin Cnfidentiality Cnfidentiality is the ability t keep cmmunicatins secret frm parties ther than the intended recipient. It is achieved by encrypting data with strng algrithms. The SSL prtcl prvides a secure mechanism that enables tw cmmunicating parties t negtiate the strngest algrithm they bth supprt and t agree n the key with which t encrypt the data. Integrity Integrity is a guarantee that the transferred data has nt been mdified in transit. The same handshake mechanism, which allws the tw parties t agree n algrithms and keys, als allws the tw ends f an SSL cnnectin t establish shared data integrity secrets, which are used t ensure that when mdified data is received, it will be detected. Authenticatin Authenticatin is the ability t ascertain with whm yu are speaking. By using digital certificates and public key security, R-1 client and server applicatins can each be authenticated t the ther. This allws the tw parties t be certain they are cmmunicating with smene they trust. The SSL prtcl prvides secure cnnectins by allwing tw applicatins cnnecting ver a netwrk cnnectin t authenticate the ther's identity and by encrypting the data exchanged between the applicatins. When using the SSL prtcl, the target always authenticates itself t the initiatr. Encryptin makes data transmitted ver the netwrk intelligible nly t the intended recipient. An SSL cnnectin begins with a handshake during which the applicatins exchange digital certificates, agree n the encryptin algrithms t use, and generate encryptin keys used fr the remainder f the sessin. The SSL prtcl uses public key encryptin fr authenticatin. 3

7 3. SSL Terminlgy The fllwing terms and cncepts are used in this dcument. Public Key Cryptgraphy Public-key cryptgraphy - als knwn as asymmetric cryptgraphy - uses a pair f keys that wrk tgether t fulfill ne r bth f the fllwing functins: Encrypt and decrypt infrmatin Sign and verify digital signatures One key is freely distributed (the public key) while the ther key (the private key) is kept secret. The sender uses the public key t encrypt messages t the recipient. The recipient uses his r her private key t decrypt messages frm the sender. Similarly, the sender may use his r her private key t sign a digital signature. The recipient uses his r her public key t verify the authenticity f the sender s signature. The private key will nly wrk with its crrespnding public key. Digital Certificates Digital certificates are electrnic dcuments used t uniquely identify entities ver netwrks such as the Internet. A digital certificate securely binds the client/server identity, as verified by a trusted third party knwn as a certificate authrity (CA), t a particular public key. The cmbinatin f the public key and the private key prvides a unique identity t the wner f the digital certificate. Digital certificates prvide cnfirmatin that a specific public key des in fact belng t the sender. A recipient f a digital certificate can use the public key cntained in the digital certificate t verify that a digital signature was created with the crrespnding private key. If the verificatin is successful, the recipient can be certain that the crrespnding private key belngs t the subject named in the digital certificate, and that the digital signature was created by that particular subject. A digital certificate typically includes a variety f infrmatin, such as: The name f the subject (hlder, wner) and ther identificatin infrmatin required t uniquely identifying the subject, such as the hstname f the nde using the digital certificate (in the Cmmn Name field), r an individual's address. The subject's public key. The name f the certificate authrity that issued the digital certificate. A serial number. 4

8 SSL Terminlgy The validity perid (r lifetime) f the digital certificate (defined by a start date and an end date). Certificate Authrity Digital certificates are issued by a Certificate Authrity (CA). Any trusted third-party rganizatin r cmpany that is willing t vuch fr the identities f thse t whm it issues digital certificates and public keys can be a certificate authrity. When a certificate authrity creates a digital certificate, the certificate authrity signs it with its private key, t ensure the detectin f tampering. The certificate authrity then returns the signed digital certificate t the requesting subject. The subject can verify the digital signature f the issuing certificate authrity by using the public key f the certificate authrity. The certificate authrity makes its public key available by prviding a digital certificate issued frm a higher-level certificate authrity attesting t the validity f the public key f the lwer-level certificate authrity. Thus, digital signatures establish the identities f cmmunicating entities, but a digital signature can be trusted nly t the extent that the public key fr verifying the digital signature can be trusted. SSL Handshake The SSL handshake establishes the encrypted cnnectin. This is accmplished in part by mutual authenticatin whereby the client authenticates itself t the server and the server authenticates itself t the client. Authenticatin invlves digital certificates, which emply public-key encryptin techniques. During the SSL handshake, the server and client exchange a symmetric sessin key. The sessin key itself is encrypted using public-key techniques, s nly the intended recipient can decrypt it. 5

9 4. SSL in R-1 R-1 uses OpenSSL t enable Encryptin and Authenticatin fr: Cnsle Center cmmunicatin effective fr R-1 Cnsle Center, RTM Cnsle RTM Organizer and RTM Cnsle RTM Hst. Center Edge cmmunicatin effective fr WAN and LFA transfer replicatin and distributin jbs. SSL sessins can be cnfigured using RTM GUI and Manage / Center r Manage / Cnsle SSL Settings n the Cnsle GUI user interfaces. Nte: Fr maximal data-security, althugh the key-phrase is encrypted at all times, it is recmmended t set SSL cnfiguratin using a lcal Cnsle n each f the Centers and Edges, and nt ver the netwrk.

28 6. Multiple Trusted Certificate Authrities Installing a trusted CA (Certificate Authrity) certificate n a system means that the system nw cmpletely trusts that CA in terms f authenticatin. If there are multiple authrities t trust, all certificates shuld be stred in ne place: either put all files in the same path with ne authrity certificate in each file, r put all certificate files in ne directry. OpenSSL will search the multiple certificates t verify that the currently used authrity exists, and therefre can be trusted. A typical certificate lks like: -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- MIICgTCCAeCAQAwDQYJKZIhvcNAQEEBQAwgYgxCzAJBgNVBAYTAklMMQ8wDQYD gdxenh1kxr5o7xb1+d5jbjzypgve -----END CERTIFICATE----- Using a Multiple Apprved CA File Yu can stre multiple apprved CA certificates in a single file. T stre multiple CA certificates in a single file: 1. Using a text editr, append all certificates int ne file. Make sure that each certificate is cpied in full, including the lines: -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE END CERTIFICATE Using the R-1 Cnsle, in the Manage / SSL tab f the cnfigured cmpnent: a. Select Use Apprved CA. i. Select the File ptin. ii. Brwse t the file cntaining all certificates. b. Click Save. Nte: Whenever the certificate changes, r is replaced, the trusted CA file has t be updated. 25

29 Multiple Trusted Certificate Authrities Using a Multiple Apprved CA Path Multiple Certificates can be stred in a single directry. In this case, OpenSSL is lking fr certificates by Hash Values, and nt by file names. Nte: T use this ptin, a UNIX machine must be used with OpenSSL installed. The certificates can be stred n a Windws machine at the end f the prcess, but the hashing utility can be activated n UNIX nly. T stre multiple apprved CA certificates in a single flder: 1. Cpy all Apprved CA Files t a UNIX machine t a single flder /cert_dir. 2. Run a utility called c_rehash t create hash keys t all apprved CA certificate files in cert_dir by perfrming: > cd /cert_dir > ls l -rwxr-xr-x 1 rt rt 928 Jul 26 09:21 trusted_ca_cert.pem --wxrw--wt 1 rt rt 1314 Jul 29 06:31 trusted_ca_cert_sl.pem > c_rehash 3. Verify that a link was created fr each f the CA files. Link names are in a hexadecimal frmat. > ls l lrwxrwxrwx 1 rt rt 22 Jul 29 08:53 50d59a91.0 -> trusted_ca_cert_sl.pem lrwxrwxrwx 1 rt rt 19 Jul 29 08:53 58c1d > trusted_ca_cert.pem -rwxr-xr-x 1 rt rt 928 Jul 26 09:21 trusted_ca_cert.pem --wxrw--wt 1 rt rt 1314 Jul 29 06:31 trusted_ca_cert_sl.pem 4. This flder is nw ready t be used. If the CA files are required n a Windws machine, perfrm the fllwing steps: a. Create a directry with the CA files stred in it. b. Cpy each CA file (in the same directry) and name the cpy with the apprpriate hash value frm the UNIX machine. c. In this example we will nw have 4 files in the directry 50d59a91.0 identical t trusted_ca_cert_sl.pem 58c1d707.0 identical t trusted_ca_cert.pem 5.
