🔒 Security Overview
Laniakea implements a comprehensive security architecture designed to protect your infrastructure and data at multiple levels. Our multi-layered validation approach ensures robust security across both frontend and backend systems, while containerized components provide additional isolation and protection.
Access Control Best Practices​
Device Access Management​
To maintain optimal security, we strongly recommend implementing strict access control policies on end devices. Below is an example configuration for JunOS devices that demonstrates secure access control implementation:
login {
class lookingglass {
permissions [ network routing ];
allow-commands "(set cli .*)|(show route protocol bgp .*)|(ping .*)|(traceroute .*)|(exit)";
deny-commands "(.*)";
}
}
}
This configuration creates a restricted lookingglass
user class with precisely defined permissions, allowing only essential networking commands while blocking all other operations.
Security Checklist​
To ensure maximum security in your Laniakea deployment, follow these essential practices:
-
System Updates
- Maintain regular update schedules for all end devices
- Apply security patches promptly
-
Rate Limiting
- Configure appropriate rate limits in your Laniakea settings
- Monitor and adjust limits based on usage patterns
-
Access Control
- Implement principle of least privilege for all user accounts
- Regularly audit user permissions and access levels
- Remove or modify access for inactive or departed users
