Managing Security
HCL DevOps Deploy (Deploy) uses a flexible team-based and role-based security model that maps to your organizational structure.
- Guidelines for setting up server security
  Although there is no single best way to set up security for the server, the following steps are sufficient in most cases.
- SSL configuration
  With Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology, clients and servers can communicate securely by encrypting all communications. Data is encrypted before it is sent and decrypted by the recipient. This communication cannot be deciphered or modified by third-parties. In addition to encryption, SSL can also support authentication.
- Encryption key tools
  Using the encryption key tools, you can manage your encryption keys.
- Authorization realms
  Use the Authorization Realms pane to create authorization realms and user groups for the server. Groups can be imported from external systems, such as LDAP.
- Authentication realms
  Authentication realms manage users and determine user identity within authorization realms for the server.
- Roles and permissions
  A role is a list of permissions that users have on the HCL DevOps Deploy (Deploy) server. These permissions include the ability to create, edit, and delete objects, such as applications, environments, and components. The permission also includes the parts of the server interface that users can access.
- Secret stores
  You can store user credentials in Hashicorp Vault and integrate with HCL DevOps Deploy (Deploy) to retrieve values from the Vault.
- Security teams
  Users and groups on the server are assigned roles when they are added to teams.
  - Creating a team
    You can create a team by adding members to manage roles and access permissins for the HCL DevOps Deploy (Deploy).
  - Assigning users to teams
    Assign users to teams so that users can be assigned to roles and work with objects that are associated with the teams.
  - Mapping teams to objects
    In addition to assigning a team to an object (such as a component or application), when you create the object, you can use the Teams page on the server to map teams to objects.
  - Assigning teams to objects
    You can assign a team to an object (such as a component or an application) when you create the object.
- Security types
  Security types define categories of objects on the server. You can put all objects into a single category, or you can put them in separate categories and give roles different access rights to different categories.
- Tokens
  Tokens provide authorization for agents, agent relays, users, and external systems or applications from the server. Agents use tokens when they run process steps and communicate with the HCL DevOps Deploy (Deploy) server and external services.
- FIPS mode enablement
  You can enable Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) mode on the systems that run the HCL DevOps Deploy (Deploy) server, agent, and relays to make them FIPS compliant.
