2 | IBM i Security Best Practices

Perform a periodic security assessment of all infrastructure by: • Your corporate security team

• IBM X-Force security team (network experts)

• IBM i Security consultants, Syncsort, Partners

This is NOT just an IBM i statement, it’s everything. Perform a security assessment and penetration testing on:

• Networks

• Laptops, desktops & mobile devices and strategy

• Servers

• Applications

Security Assessment Recommendation


Do you have the necessary skills?

If not, resources do exist to help you!

Physical Security

Physical Security, Networking

• Firewalls, routers, switches, cabling, power

• Prevent configuration changes and sniffing equipment

• Wireless poses a challenge – secure networks are necessary (WPA, WPA2. etc.)

Physical Security, Server

• Front panel

• Power, cabling

• Racks/Storage devices

Physical Security, Peripherals

• Tape drives/cartridges, Printers/output, Fax, etc.

• Printed output and backup media

• SAN; attached DASD

Physical Security, Mobile Devices

• Mobile Device Management considerations (ownership, “Secure Wipe”, etc.)

Physical Security – a Necessity


Staying Current

Stay Current with Technology Staying current is vitally important for security

IBM i release level

• Older releases cannot be kept current

• New technology changes cannot move backward

Open Source technology

• Changes rapidly and fixes for old versions are not developed by the open source community

• Includes Java, OpenSSL/SSH, Apache, etc.

Hardware technology

• Like everything, hardware advances with new technology

• Includes routers, switches, firewall, laptops/desktops/mobile devices, servers and more


Staying Current on Fixes ̶Required Now More than Ever!

Statistics

There are 24,000 malicious mobile apps blocked every day. (Symantec)

A new organization will fall victim to ransomware every 14 seconds in 2019, and every 11 seconds by 2021. (Source: Cyber Security Ventures)

34% of businesses hit with malware took a week or more to regain access to their data. (Source: Kaspersky)

The 2018 global average cost of a data breach is up 6.4 percent over the previous year to $3.86 million (Ponemon).

9

According to 2018 statistics, there are over 130 large-scale, targeted breaches in the U.S. per year, and growing by 27 percent per year. (Accenture)

Ransomware attacks are growing more than 350 percent annually. (Cisco) 1.5 million new phishing sites are

created every month. (Source: webroot)

The number of cyber attacks is growing. In 2018, 758 million malicious attacks occurred according to KasperskyLab, (an attack launched every 40 seconds) and there is no doubt that 2019 will break the record.

77 percent of compromised email attacks in 2017 were file less (click URL to malicious website rather than email attachment).

Security Vulnerabilities

• Numerous independent researchers

• Lots of open source so easy to review code and look for issues

• Common OS in many products (Linux, Unix, Windows) • When a vulnerability is found, it’s likely to be everywhere

• Tools are available to exploit technology (look for holes)• Hacker tools, penetration testing tools, code scanners

• High use technology, like Java, SSL, OpenSSL, is scrutinized

• Vendors are doing more penetration testing and thus finding bugs

Many security vulnerabilities are being reported…Spectre/Meltdown, ILOVEYOU, Heartbleed, Bash/Shellshock, Poodle, Ghost, Freak, Bar Mitzvah plus many, many more!

What’s happening and why so many?


Security Vulnerabilities – IBM i


• Java (quarterly updates, you need to stay current)

• OpenSSL / SSH

• Web and Application Servers

• Samba

• Networking technology and (infrequently) cryptographic algorithms

• IBM i OS

IBM i technology with multiple (recent) reported vulnerabilities

Typically, apply the PTF/Fix/Product Update and the vulnerability is fixed, but not always.

Additional actions may be required.

Security Vulnerabilities –Not just the OS

• IBM i OS, LIC and Products

• VIOS, IBM i, AIX, Linux partitions

• HMC & Firmware

• 3rd party (Vendors) applications

• SAN/Storage, Tape, Printers

• Networking Switches, Firewalls & Routers

• Each and every server, client (including mobile) and HW component in your enterprise

• Nearly everything includes an OS and/or FW

• Where there is code, a vulnerability is a possibility & likely exists

Staying Current on Fixes is not just a client and server problem.The vulnerabilities affect most everything in your enterprise.


IFS Security Considerations, Virus/RansomwareVirus/Ransomware can affect IBM i objects

• Mapped drives with write access to files

• Virus can be inserted into a file (IBM i as a “carrier”)

• Ransomware can encrypt data on IBM i

• IBM i native files can be deleted

Recommendation• Virus scan software, on the client device, is required

• IBM i virus scanner enablement with 3rd party scanner

• Virus is executable on the Windows/Linux client device so regardless of origin such as email attachment, link from a web browser or downloaded from IBM i, “Client” virus scan software is required.


IFS Security Considerations, Virus/Ransomware

IBM i File shares (NetServer / Samba)

• Define read/write shares ONLY if updates needed from client

• Share only what is needed

• When shared, the entire subtree is accessible

• Avoid sharing root (‘/’)

• Access to all objects on the system

• If needed - share read-only

• Use QPWFSERVER *AUTL to protect QSYS.LIB and iASPQSYS.LIB (special checks in NetServer jobs)


IBM i Server Security

System Security LevelsSystem Value: QSECURITY


Security Levels ̶Why Run at a High Level?

System security level 50... Good reasons to run there.

The System Integrity support, listed here, is activated:


1. Object Domain Checking

2. Hardware storage protection

3. Parameter validation

Running at security level 40 or 50 is required as these two security levels support the integrity protection

that all other security levels DO NOT!

Authority Checking and Integrity Support at Levels 40 & 50User written programs, running at security level 40 or 50, MUST use system interfaces (commands and APIs) to gain access to the objects.

• Authority checking is enforced by the system interface

• Parameter Validation is enforced

• Object Domain checking is enforced

• Object Hardware Storage Protection checking is enforced


Direct access [defined as “direct object access via address”] by user programs to system objects is not

allowed at Security Levels 40 and 50 due to domain and hardware storage protection attributes

SST/DST Security Considerations

Securing Service ToolsControlling access to the Service Tools is necessary for a secure system

• Create as few Service Tools User IDs (SST/DST) as possible

• Create a Service Tool user with the same privileges as QSECOFR (QSECOFR can become disabled)

• Never use QSECOFR Service Tool USERID (save the password in a secure location)

DSPSSTUSR (Display Service Tool User CL command)

• Command line interface to “audit” service tool users and privileges


System Value Settings

Set these system values on your production machine when NOT

in the maintenance window – control the restore of a program

QALWOBJRST - Consider value *NONE

QFRCCVNRST - Consider value 6 or 7

• 6 – for executables without valid digital signatures, recreate the instruction stream thus removing any patch

• 7 – for all executables, recreate the instruction stream thus removing any patch (would also remove the digital signature)

QVFYOBJRST - Consider value 5

• Only allow the restore of programs that are digitally signed

Integrity Related System Values


Controlling System Interfaces

The "RST" interfaces are shipped as PUBLIC(*EXCLUDE).

• Only trusted users should be authorized to use the restore interfaces

• Note: BRMS interfaces are PUBLIC(*USE) but call the system "RST" interfaces which are PUBLIC(*EXCLUDE)

Verify the list of users authorized to “SAVE” data

• Data escaping your control once it is “off the box”

Protect the use of the system service tools (SST/DST) and Service related commands (DMPxxx, TRCxxx, etc)

• Dangerous tools/services exist in SST/DST


System Value Settings (continued)

Auditing Related System Values

QAUDCTL - Audit on/off switch

QAUDLVL and QAUDLVL2

QAUDENDACN and QAUDFRCLVL - Use default values

QCRTOBJAUD - Audit newly created objects


Auditing Continued

Create the QAUDJRN audit journal

Set QAUDCTL to *OBJAUD, *AUDLVL and *NOQTEMP

Set QAUDLVL to *AUDLVL2

Set system wide auditing values in QAUDLVL2 sysval

• Many QAUDLVL2 values exist, see QAUDLVL2 help text

Audit sensitive objects via CHGOBJAUD


Turn on audit and save the audit journal receivers. You may need the audit data in the future!

Auditing Continued – Data ObjectsSecurity Audit provides who accesses what object

A combination of security audit and “data object” journaling provides the complete audit trail

Turn on journaling for *FILE and IFS *STMF sensitive objects to get the complete audit of changes, including change to data

• CRTJRNRCV JRNRCV(MYLIB/MYRCV0001)

• CRTJRN JRN(MYLIB/MYJRN) JRNRCV(MYLIB/MYRCV0001)

Audit Journal Implementation Overview


Is Audit Activated on your System?Display Security Auditing – DSPSECAUD


Configuring Auditing for the First Time

Change Security Auditing – CHGSECAUD

Change Security Auditing – CHGSECAUD1. Creates QSYS/QAUDJRN journal2. Creates and attaches the journal receiver3. Changes QAUDCTL and QAUDLVL system values


IBM i OS provides interfaces to view raw audit data

• CPYAUDJRNE – copy audit data to a file

• Use Query, or your favorite DB interface, to view data

Syncsort products are available to monitor and report:• View/Report on Audit data

• Control and Monitor object level access

• Monitor & Report on security configuration

• Direct the information out to a SIEM (QRadar, Splunk, etc.)

Monitoring and Reporting for Compliance


WRKSYSVAL SYSVAL(QPWD*)

• Set password composition rule system values

• Min/Max length, required characters, etc.

• Consider using enhanced password support (QPWDLVL)

• Case sensitive long passwords (128 characters)

Use the ANZDFTPWD command to check for default passwords

Password Composition System Values


NOTE: Passwords are well protected when on IBM i but can be exposed when saved and on media. (They are encrypted on the save media but subject to a brute force attack.)

WRKSYSVAL SYSVAL(*SEC) for the entire list

• QINACTITV - Set to a reasonable number of minutes

• QINACTMSGQ - *ENDJOB/*DSCJOB

• QMAXSIGN - Consider setting to 3

• QMAXSGNACN - Set to disable profile

• QNET* - Network Auditing

• QSSL* - Control system SSL parameters

Additional Security Related System Values


Resource Security

Network security

• Firewalls, IDS/IPS, network segmentation, etc.

Deploy a network security product

• “Lock down” IBM i doors & windows (ODBC, FTP, DRDA, etc.) *

• Multi-factor authentication*

Secure sensitive data (*FILE, *STMF, etc.)

• Object level authority, PUBLIC(*EXCLUDE) where appropriate

• Use Journal to log changes for *FILE and *STMF objects

• RCAC (Row and Column Access Control)

• Deploy file level protection *

Encrypt “confidential” data

• Db2 field procedures, OS encryption interfaces, “at rest on media”, etc.*

Audit sensitive objects and security configuration

• Auditing, monitoring and reporting *

• CHGOBJAUD to active object audit

Monitor security configuration to ensure settings are accurately set *

Resource Security – A Layered Approach


* Available in Syncsort solutions

IBM i OS provides an excellent base security infrastructure

However, an intruder who gains access and has complete privileges (security officer

authority) has full access and must be stopped before entry into the system or stopped before sensitive data is compromised.

Resource Security – Privilege User Concerns


Resource Security – Network Layer


Locking the IBM i doors and windows – keeping the intruder out

• Minimal support in the IBM i OS – authentication via passwords or Kerberos

Syncsort provides the network layer of protection

• Products for network security and audit

• Define rules to block access INTO IBM i

• Define rules to block access once the user has authenticated

• Products for multi-factor authentication

• And monitoring, reporting and SIEM integration

Keep the number of security officers and security administrators to a minimum

• *ALLOBJ, *SECADM, etc. special authority

• Service tool user IDs

• Syncsort Products minimize the need for powerful profiles

Audit the actions of the Powerful user• CHGUSRAUD command

• *CMD action audit value, *SECURITY, etc.

• Control and Monitor users via Syncsort products

Resource Security – Restrict Powerful Users


Make sure the security officer understands,

procedurally, that audit cannot be turned OFF!

Resource Security - Protecting your ObjectsEDTOBJAUT

Interface to assign objectlevel authorities

Use *PUBLIC = *EXCLUDE for sensitive objects

Authority List

Public AUT

Owner

Private AUT


Protecting your objects with resource security is necessary to protect your data

• Run at a security level 50 or 40

• Secure your confidential data with *EXCLUDE public authority

• *USE access for Db2 and IFS stream files exposes data

• Objects that are not security sensitive (public objects) should be protected with *USE public authority. This gives good performance for read operations on the object.

• Add Layers of security via Syncsort products

• Network, Audit, MFA, Privilege User Management, Monitoring & Reporting, etc.

Resource Security - Protecting your Objects


Row and Column Access Control

Release 7.2 - RCAC

Additional layer of data security available with Db2 in 7.2

Complementary to table level security (object authority checking)

Controls access to table data at the ROW, COLUMN or BOTH

Two sets of rules

• Permissions for rows

• Masks for columns

IBM Advanced Data Security for i

• No-charge feature, OS Option 47 required for RCAC

View the data via “Run SQL Scripts” and SQL “SELECT” statement & RUNQRY

• iNav session user is “UEHLING” & no group profile

Example: Multi-Row *FILE with Row Permissions and Column Mask Enabled

Select all rows from table EMPTBLvia

select * from empdta.emptblresults

Row Permissions and Column Masking activated


Release 7.3 & 7.4 Authority Collection, Managing Object Level Authority

Customers run many applications on a single partition

• No detailed knowledge of the applications… where is the data?

• Data in Db2 or IFS … but where?

• Once found, how do you lock down security without application breakage?

• What is the “minimum” authority level that can be granted for the end user?

• Many customers have little to no knowledge of what interfaces an application uses so the authority requirements cannot be determined

• Applications are shipped with excessive public authority (common problem) which leads to security exposures

The problem: customers don’t change security leaving data exposed

• Example: Think about your personal device, over 1 million files on a single user system

• What if this device was a multi-user system… how would you lock it down?

• No knowledge of the application or data objects so very difficult to secure the objects

Security and Compliance - The Issue


Locking Down Object Level Authority

Build a utility that captures pertinent data associated with an authority check (included as part of the base OS)

• The collection covers all native IBM i file systems

• Focus on capturing only unique instances of the authority check

• Run-time performance, while the collection is active, will degrade 2-3%

• Storage consideration for long running authority collection

The collection includes key pieces of information… (including)

“What authority is required for this authority check?”

Solution: Authority Collection


• The Authority Collection is “User Based” in the 7.3 release

• Collect authority info for objects accessed by this user

• Provide both “User Based” and “Object Based” Authority Collection in 7.4

• Turn on the authority collection for an object(s) in QSYS or IFS file system

• Collect authority info for “EVERY USER” that accesses the object

• When a user accesses an object, collect authority info for this user

• The equivalent authority information, as user based, will be collected

• Output the data via the SQL view

Release 7.3 & 7.4 Object Level Authority Collection


Authority Collection – View

SELECT * FROM qsys2.authority_collection where user_name = ‘FRED1’


Authority Collection – View

Scrolling Right within the Authority Collection Data


IBM i Encryption

IBM i Encryption Algorithms

IBM i APIs exist to allow applications to encrypt data

• Included with the OS

• Encryption algorithms, via APIs, included with the OS

• Key management integrated with the API design (master keys and key store files)

Syncsort Products exist to provide NIST-certified encryption Algorithms


A data encryption key should be well protected or data is exposed

• An encryption key and encryption algorithm are used to encrypt data (SSN’s, credit card numbers, etc.)

It is recommended to encrypt the data key with a key encrypting key (KEK)

• Used to encrypt data encryption keys

A Master Key can then be used to encrypt all KEKs

• A master key is used to encrypt KEKs or Data Encryption Keys

• Top level key, in the clear! If master key is compromised, data is compromised

• How do you securely store this master key?

Cryptographic Key Protection - TerminologyEncryption Algorithms are public knowledge

Encryption keys must be kept secret and protected


1 2 3KEK2

1 2 3KEK1

Master

Clear Text

Crypto Key Management


• Syncsort products exist that provide FIPS certified key management solutions.

• Syncsort products exist that allow remote access to encryption keys (keys off the partition).

GUI & CL interface to manage master keys• Included as part of the base OS

GUI & CL interface to manage IBM i key stores & keys• OS interfaces to manage key store files and keys

Db2 Column Level (field) exit support• Exit program (Field Procedure) called on insert/update/read of a column

• Similar to “Triggers” but additional support to enable encryption

• Masking of Data is also supported

IBM i Enables Column Level Encryption• Support to enable the Encrypt/Decrypt data in a Db2 column

• No need to change column attributes like field length or data type

• No application changes required

• Encryption & Key management must be implemented by the Field Procedure software

Solution from Syncsort for Db2 Field Procedures and Key Management

Db2 Field Procedures


Tokenization


IBM i has no OS support for tokenization

Syncsort provides a tokenization solution

• Tokenization provides the ability to replace sensitive data, such as a credit card number with a token that represents the sensitive data.

• The sensitive data is stored in a token vault, usually off the partition. The token cannot be used to directly obtain the credit card number.

• Tokenization is a popular technique for PCI (payment card

industry) compliance.

Encryption of data on tape & disk (HW technologies are recommended for optimal performance)

• SW Encrypted backup. Provides encryption support for tape/virtual tape via BRMS and tape management APIs (OS option 44)

• HW encrypted backup solutions

• SW Encrypted ASP. Provides disk level encryption support for all data written to disk (OS option 45)

• HW support for Disk level encryption

Encryption key management is required (master keys and data encryption keys)

Encryption of Data “at Rest”


Enhanced HW tape drive and disk support with encryption

Provide encryption capability in the Tape and Disk (external storage)

Encryption capabilities are being designed to work with the key management software called Secure Key Lifecycle Manager (SKLM)


Encryption Key Manager Software (SKLM), required for tape and disk HW solutions
