AWS CloudHSM allows customers to leverage dedicated Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) located within AWS data centers. This provides strong protection of encryption keys through physical and logical access controls. While AWS manages the HSM appliances, customers control and manage their own keys. Application performance can also improve through the close proximity of HSMs to workloads running in AWS. Customers have full control over key generation, storage, and use through APIs that integrate with their existing applications.

The 2014 AWS Enterprise Summit - Understanding AWS SecurityAmazon Web Services
The AWS cloud infrastructure has been architected to be one of the most flexible and secure cloud computing environments available today. Security for AWS is about three related elements: visibility, auditability, and control. You have to know what you have and where it is before you can assess the environment against best practices, internal standards, and compliance standards. Controls enable you to place precise, well-understood limits on the access to your information. Did you know, for example, that you can define a rule that says that "Tom is the only person who can access this data object that I store with Amazon, and he can only do so from his corporate desktop on the corporate network, from Monday-Friday 9-5 and when he uses MFA?" That's the level of granularity you can choose to implement if you wish. In this session, we'll cover these topics to provide a practical understanding of the security programs, procedures, and best practices you can use to enhance your current security posture.

ABSTRACT: Although a significant amount of literature exists on Morocco's migration policies and their
successes and failures since their implementation in 2014, there is limited research on the integration of subSaharan African children into schools. This paperis part of a Ph.D. research project that aims to fill this gap. It
reports the main findings of a study conducted with migrant children enrolled in two public schools in Rabat,
Morocco, exploring how integration is defined by the children themselves and identifying the obstacles that they
have encountered thus far. The following paper uses an inductive approach and primarily focuses on the
relationships of children with their teachers and peers as a key aspect of integration for students with a migration
background. The study has led to several crucial findings. It emphasizes the significance of speaking Colloquial
Moroccan Arabic (Darija) and being part of a community for effective integration. Moreover, it reveals that the
use of Modern Standard Arabic as the language of instruction in schools is a source of frustration for students,
indicating the need for language policy reform. The study underlines the importanceof considering the
children‟s agency when being integrated into mainstream public schools.

Improving Workplace Safety Performance in Malaysian SMEs: The Role of Safety ...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT: In the Malaysian context, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) experience a significant
burden of workplace accidents. A consensus among scholars attributes a substantial portion of these incidents to
human factors, particularly unsafe behaviors. This study, conducted in Malaysia's northern region, specifically
targeted Safety and Health/Human Resource professionals within the manufacturing sector of SMEs. We
gathered a robust dataset comprising 107 responses through a meticulously designed self-administered
questionnaire. Employing advanced partial least squares-structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) techniques
with SmartPLS 3.2.9, we rigorously analyzed the data to scrutinize the intricate relationship between safety
behavior and safety performance. The research findings unequivocally underscore the palpable and
consequential impact of safety behavior variables, namely safety compliance and safety participation, on
improving safety performance indicators such as accidents, injuries, and property damages. These results
strongly validate research hypotheses. Consequently, this study highlights the pivotal significance of cultivating
safety behavior among employees, particularly in resource-constrained SME settings, as an essential step toward
enhancing workplace safety performance.

Security policies and processes may not be known
Questions around access to customer’s data
Data sovereignty
Legal liability in security or SLA domains
Key management and control of the encryption keys

Objects in partitions are not accessible by cloud folks
All they can do is to delete partitions if you don’t pay
It can be deployed in the same subnets where consumers
are (it decreases latency compare to “on premise” HSM)
Multiple layers of security:
• Subnets @ network level
• Client/server certs and registration
• Manager password (connects through ssh)
• Admin password (init work, create partition)
• Partition level pin

11. Customer Responsibility
• Even after it has been provisioned there are many
manual steps:
• You’ll need to initialize the HSM to establish
your credentials and control of the HSM
• You’ll need to configure a server and generate
server side certificates
• You’ll need to generate a client cert on each
client, scp its public portion to the server and
register it
• These steps are an essential part of the security
model
12. Manual Setup - Server
1. 'hsm init' command to initialize the device
2. 'sysconf re' command to regenerate server side
certificates
3. 'ntls bind' command to restart Luna's network
interfaces
4. 'hsm login' to as admin to Luna
5. 'par cr ...' to create a partition
6. 'c reg ...' to register client (normally client IP is
required here and this is a pain)
7. 'c a ...' to assign a partition to a client
13. Client Certs
Normally, you need to generate a client cert on each
client and then scp public portion of it to the server:
cd /usr/lunasa/bin
./vtl createCert -n <cert_name>
On the server a normal client registration process
requires a client’s IP:
• This is good security wise
• This is not so good when your clients are
running in ASG (which is very common)
14. Solution for Client Certs
Fortunately, there is a solution confirmed by both
SafeNet and AWS folks:
• The same client cert can be used on all clients
• A generic client name can be used instead of a
client’s IP when a client is registered on a server
On client you can run:
cd /usr/lunasa/bin
./vtl createCert -n <cert_name>
On server you can use <cert_name> instead of IP:
c reg -c <client_name> -h <cert_name>
15. Solution for Client Certs Problem
• The solution is good if you look at it from
usability point of view
• From security point of view – probably not that
good since once the cert is compromised, it can be
used from any IP
• Looks like a necessary tradeoff
• Mitigating controls:
• More scrutiny @ network level (security
groups)
• Strong and well protected partition level pins
16. Enabling Java Clients through JCA
• AWS CloudHSM is completely compatible with
JCA
• Safenet provider is available and should be
integrated with Java env:
1. Add LunaProvider.jar to CLASSPATH
2. Add the provider to java.security
…
9=sun.security.smartcardio.SunPCSC
security.provider.10=com.safenetinc.luna.pro
vider.LunaProvider
17. Enabling Luna HA Array
• You’ll need two or more Luna devices configured
absolutely the same
• You’ll need to use an haAdmin utility on a client:
To create a new HA group:
$ sudo ./vtl haAdmin -newGroup -serialNum zzzzzzzz
-label <group-name> -password <partition-level-pin>
To add a new member to an existing group:
$ sudo ./vtl haAdmin -addMember -serialNum xxxxxxxxx
-group yyyyyyyy -password <partition-level-pin>
19. Suggested Architecture – SG’s
It’s probably not a good idea to allow network access
to HSM from all business apps – it’s enough to have
one compromised node (especially when client certs
are shared).
• SG-RED – Luna HA Array subnet. Allows
connections to proxy layer only
• SG-YELLOW – Proxies (more than one for
scalability). Allows inbound connections from
business layer
• SG-GREEN (can be more than one) can connect to
proxy layer
20. Other Security Considerations
• Questions around cloud security
• You still need to find a way of passing secrets
(partition level pins, private client certs,
passwords – if you want them on proxies)
• You probably don’t want the secrets:
• In AMI’s
• In User Data
• In Amazon S3 buckets
• When an Amazon EC2 instance starts it doesn’t
have any credentials, but you still want to verify
or authenticate it somehow before you can pass
the secrets
• An idea here is similar to out-of-band verification
using AWS API
21. Passing Secrets to Cloud Instances
• At instance bootstrap, a client will send a request to server running in an internal
DC and includes the following metadata to the request:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Internal/external IP’s
instance-id
public-hostname
local-hostname
reservation-id
instance-type
• Upon receiving a request the server will validate the parameters using AWS API
• The server will limit the timeframe when Amazon EC2 instance initialization is
possible by checking the instance start time
• The server might optionally implement “one time use” policy (one request per
each parameters set)
• The server might also check an Amazon EC2 instance role to enforce proper
authorization
22. Check if Amazon EC2 Instance is in Role
Role -> Instance profile -> Instance -> Policy Mapping
• Policies are not required to implement “Instance in Role” verification
• It’s not a traditional use of AWS roles, but it fits a generic RBAC model well
23. Check if Amazon EC2 Instance is in Role
Code that can be run by a verifying party:
public boolean inRole (Instance ins, String role) {
boolean ret = false;
IamInstanceProfile prof = ins.getIamInstanceProfile();
if (prof == null)
return false;
String arn = prof.getArn();
ListInstanceProfilesForRoleRequest req = new ListInstanceProfilesForRoleRequest();
req.setRoleName(role);
AmazonIdentityManagementClient iam = new AmazonIdentityManagementClient(
new BasicAWSCredentials(appId, appSecret));
if (iam == null)
return false;
ListInstanceProfilesForRoleResult res = iam.listInstanceProfilesForRole(req);
if (res == null)
return false;
List<InstanceProfile> ipl = res.getInstanceProfiles();
for (InstanceProfile ip : ipl ) {
if (ip.getArn().equals(arn)) {
ret = true;
break;
}
}
return ret;
}
24. Automation
Python tool that does it all: http://sf.net/p/lunamech
Examples.
1. Create a single partition
luna_mech -p -g -r <path-to-partition.cfg>
2. Create a single Luna
luna_mech -l -g -r <path-to-luna.cfg>
3. Create an HA array of Luna’s
luna_mech -a -g -r <path-to-luna-array.cfg>
