Security

SwiftNet implements a multi-layered security approach to ensure safe and controlled agent operations. Our security framework is built on five core pillars: containerization, environment control, monitoring, access management, and data protection.

1. Containerization Security

Docker Implementation

• Individual container isolation for each agent instance

• Read-only root filesystem

• Custom security profiles using AppArmor/SELinux

• Resource limitations (CPU, memory, network)

Container Hardening

yamlCopy# Example Docker security configuration
security_opts:
  - no-new-privileges:true
  - seccomp:security-profile.json
  - apparmor:security-profile

Network Isolation

• Internal container networks

• Controlled external access

• Port exposure limitations

• Network policy enforcement

2. Environment Control

Virtual Environment Management

bashCopy# Secure environment setup
python -m venv .venv --system-site-packages false
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install --require-hashes -r requirements.txt

Access Control Implementation

• Role-based access control (RBAC)

• Principle of least privilege

• Environment variable protection

• Filesystem access restrictions

Configuration Security

pythonCopy# Example secure configuration
config = {
    'allowed_domains': ['trusted-domain.com'],
    'max_file_size': 10485760,  # 10MB
    'allowed_file_types': ['.txt', '.pdf', '.md'],
    'timeout': 300  # 5 minutes
}

3. Monitoring Systems

Activity Tracking

• Real-time agent activity monitoring

• Operation audit trails

• Resource usage tracking

• Performance metrics

Logging Implementation

pythonCopy# Example logging configuration
import logging

logging.config.dictConfig({
    'version': 1,
    'handlers': {
        'secure_file': {
            'class': 'logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler',
            'filename': 'secure.log',
            'maxBytes': 10485760,
            'backupCount': 5,
            'formatter': 'detailed'
        }
    },
    'formatters': {
        'detailed': {
            'format': '%(asctime)s %(levelname)s [%(name)s] %(message)s'
        }
    }
})

Alert System

• Anomaly detection

• Critical event notifications

• Threshold-based alerts

• Incident response triggers

4. Access Management

Resource Control

• API rate limiting

• Bandwidth restrictions

• Storage quotas

• Computation limits

Authentication System

pythonCopy# Example authentication implementation
from swiftnet.security import AuthManager

auth_manager = AuthManager(
    token_expiration=3600,  # 1 hour
    max_failed_attempts=3,
    require_2fa=True
)

Permission Framework

• Granular permission settings

• Token-based authentication

• Session management

• API access control

5. Data Protection

Data Encryption

• At-rest encryption

• In-transit encryption (TLS 1.3)

• Key management

• Secure key rotation

Security Audit Implementation

pythonCopy# Example audit implementation
class SecurityAuditor:
    def __init__(self):
        self.audit_interval = 86400  # 24 hours
        
    def audit_security_configs(self):
        # Check security configurations
        pass
        
    def audit_access_logs(self):
        # Analyze access patterns
        pass
        
    def generate_audit_report(self):
        # Generate comprehensive report
        pass

Data Handling Policies

• Data retention policies

• Secure data deletion

• Privacy compliance

• Data classification

Security Best Practices

Installation Security

bashCopy# Secure installation process
# 1. Verify package integrity
sha256sum swiftnet-package.tar.gz
# 2. Install in isolated environment
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
# 3. Install with security flags
pip install --require-hashes swiftnet

Configuration Checklist

• Enable all security features

• Configure access controls

• Set up monitoring

• Implement backup strategy

• Configure alert system

Emergency Response

1. Immediate containment

2. Incident logging

3. Impact assessment

4. System recovery

5. Post-incident analysis

Regular Security Maintenance

• Weekly security updates

• Monthly configuration reviews

• Quarterly penetration testing

• Annual security audit

• Continuous vulnerability scanning
