- Security Best Practices
Media Vault implements a defense-in-depth security strategy with multiple layers of protection:
- Perimeter Security: Firewall, WAF, and DDoS protection
- Identity & Access Management: Keycloak-based authentication
- Data Protection: Encryption at rest and in transit
- Network Security: VPCs, security groups, and network policies
- Monitoring & Logging: Comprehensive audit trails
- Centralized identity management
- Multi-factor authentication (MFA) support
- Social login (Google, GitHub, etc.)
- Password policies enforcement
- Secure, HTTP-only cookies
- Short-lived access tokens (15-30 minutes)
- Refresh token rotation
- Session timeout after 24 hours of inactivity
| Role | Permissions |
|---|---|
| Admin | Full system access |
| Manager | User management, content moderation |
| User | Upload, view, manage own content |

|---|---|
| In Transit | TLS 1.3 |
| At Rest | AES-256 |
| Database | TDE (Transparent Data Encryption) |
| Backups | GPG |
- User data: Retained until account deletion
- Audit logs: 1 year
- System logs: 30 days
- Backups: 90 days
