Overview

MyPrivateVPN Network implements a comprehensive, multi-layered security architecture designed to protect user data, ensure system integrity, and maintain compliance with industry standards. This guide outlines the security measures, protocols, and best practices implemented throughout the platform.

Security Philosophy

Our security approach is built on these core principles:

  1. Zero Trust Architecture: Never trust, always verify
  2. Defense in Depth: Multiple security layers
  3. Least Privilege: Minimal access rights
  4. Security by Design: Security integrated from the start
  5. Continuous Monitoring: Real-time threat detection
  6. Compliance First: Meet regulatory requirements
  7. Transparency: Clear security practices

Security Objectives

  • Confidentiality: Protect user data and communications
  • Integrity: Ensure data accuracy and system reliability
  • Availability: Maintain service accessibility
  • Authentication: Verify user and system identities
  • Authorization: Control access to resources
  • Non-repudiation: Prevent denial of actions
  • Auditability: Comprehensive logging and monitoring

Security Best Practices

Development Security

Secure Coding Guidelines

# Secure coding examples

# 1. Input validation
def validate_input(data: dict) -> dict:
    """Validate and sanitize input data"""
    # Use strict type checking
    assert isinstance(data.get('name'), str), "Name must be a string"
    assert len(data.get('name', '')) <= 100, "Name too long"
    
    # Sanitize string inputs
    name = data['name'].strip()
    name = re.sub(r'[<>"\']', '', name)  # Remove potential XSS
    
    return {'name': name}

# 2. Secure password handling
import bcrypt

def hash_password(password: str) -> str:
    """Hash password securely"""
    salt = bcrypt.gensalt(rounds=12)
    hashed = bcrypt.hashpw(password.encode('utf-8'), salt)
    return hashed.decode('utf-8')

def verify_password(password: str, hashed: str) -> bool:
    """Verify password securely"""
    return bcrypt.checkpw(password.encode('utf-8'), hashed.encode('utf-8'))

# 3. Secure random number generation
import secrets
import string

def generate_secure_token(length: int = 32) -> str:
    """Generate cryptographically secure token"""
    alphabet = string.ascii_letters + string.digits
    return ''.join(secrets.choice(alphabet) for _ in range(length))

# 4. Secure API key generation
def generate_api_key(user_id: str, permissions: List[str]) -> Dict[str, str]:
    """Generate secure API key with metadata"""
    key_id = secrets.token_urlsafe(16)
    key_secret = secrets.token_urlsafe(32)
    
    # Never store the full key, only hash
    key_hash = hashlib.sha256(key_secret.encode()).hexdigest()
    
    return {
        'key_id': key_id,
        'key_display': f"mpv_{key_id[:8]}_{key_secret[:8]}",
        'key_hash': key_hash,
        'user_id': user_id,
        'permissions': permissions,
        'created_at': datetime.utcnow().isoformat()
    }
