Runtime Security

HypnoScript provides comprehensive security features for runtime environments, including authentication, authorization, encryption, and audit logging.

Authentication

User Authentication

HypnoScript supports various authentication methods:

hyp
// LDAP authentication
auth.ldap {
    server: "ldap://corp.example.com:389"
    base_dn: "dc=example,dc=com"
    bind_dn: "cn=service,ou=services,dc=example,dc=com"
    bind_password: env.LDAP_PASSWORD
}

// OAuth2 integration
auth.oauth2 {
    provider: "azure_ad"
    client_id: env.OAUTH_CLIENT_ID
    client_secret: env.OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET
    redirect_uri: "https://app.example.com/auth/callback"
    scopes: ["openid", "profile", "email"]
}

// Multi-factor authentication
auth.mfa {
    provider: "totp"
    issuer: "HypnoScript Runtime"
    algorithm: "sha1"
    digits: 6
    period: 30
}

Session Management

hyp
// Secure session configuration
session {
    timeout: 3600  // 1 hour
    max_sessions: 5
    secure_cookies: true
    http_only: true
    same_site: "strict"

    // Session rotation
    rotation {
        interval: 1800  // 30 minutes
        regenerate_id: true
    }
}

Authorization

Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)

hyp
// Rollendefinitionen
roles {
    admin: {
        permissions: ["*"]
        description: "Full access to all functions"
    }

    developer: {
        permissions: [
            "script:read",
            "script:write",
            "script:execute",
            "test:run",
            "log:read"
        ]
        description: "Developer with script access"
    }

    analyst: {
        permissions: [
            "script:read",
            "data:read",
            "report:generate"
        ]
        description: "Data analyst with read access"
    }

    viewer: {
        permissions: [
            "script:read",
            "log:read"
        ]
        description: "Read-only access"
    }
}

// User role assignment
users {
    "john.doe@example.com": ["admin"]
    "jane.smith@example.com": ["developer", "analyst"]
    "bob.wilson@example.com": ["viewer"]
}

Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC)

hyp
// ABAC policies
policies {
    data_access: {
        condition: {
            user.department == resource.department &&
            user.security_level >= resource.classification &&
            time.hour >= 8 && time.hour <= 18
        }
        action: "allow"
    }

    script_execution: {
        condition: {
            user.role in ["admin", "developer"] &&
            script.risk_level <= user.max_risk_level &&
            environment == "production" ? user.prod_access : true
        }
        action: "allow"
    }
}

    }

    // Data in transit
    in_transit: {
        tls_version: "1.3"
        cipher_suites: [
            "TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384",
            "TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256"
        ]
        certificate_validation: "strict"
    }

    // Application level
    application: {
        sensitive_fields: ["password", "api_key", "token"]
        encryption_algorithm: "aes-256-gcm"
        key_derivation: "pbkdf2"

Best Practices

Security Policies

  1. Principle of Least Privilege

    • Grant users only necessary permissions
    • Conduct regular permission reviews
  2. Defense in Depth

    • Implement multiple security layers
    • Do not consider a single vulnerability as critical
  3. Regular Updates

    • Apply security patches promptly
    • Automate dependency updates
  4. Monitoring and Alerting

    • Comprehensive logging of all activities
    • Proactive detection of security incidents
  5. Training and Awareness

    • Regular security training
    • Conduct phishing simulations
