If you do so, make sure you use slow setting epxoy resin. The reaction usually is exothermal and can produce quite a bit of heat. And its also coupled by a positive feddback loop. The more resin you have in one place, the hotter it gets when setting. The hoter it gets, the faster it will set. The faster ist sets, the more heat is produced :) Slowly setting resin is also of higer viscosity, which makes it to creep deeper into the gaps and holes and develops higher adhesive and cohesive forces, which, to come to an end, makes it harder to get rid of it. Or you could use an unstable explosive to fill the housing, of course. But this, in turn, might prove to make it harder to find a place to house your box :D Sorry for loosing focus.

Re: [swinog] hosting for 1 powersupply with lan port
another way to avoid the ssh agent intrusion is to use TCP tunneling through SSH. Then the intermediate host is only used for TCP connection bridging, but all the authentication is happening outside of your jumphost. - Original Message - > From: Stanislav Sinyagin > > >> >> From: Jeroen Massar >> >> On 2 Jun 2012, at 05:49, Stanislav Sinyagin > wrote: >> >> >> >> When I'm logged in to the VPS, I can do >>> >>> ssh -A ssinyagin@1.2.3.4 >>> with this command, the server 1.2.3.4 authenticates me through my public > key, and the VPS acts as the SSH agent proxy.

Unless the attacker is on the jumpbox as root as then they can also forward in the same way, but this should not happen ofcourse ;) For this reason, I tend to use a key per device and keep all authorized key files in svn, which makes it easy to identify which nodes are possibly compromised or at least quickly remove access. You could use the forward trick and keep the private key etc on your local device. Remote syslogging is for this reason a good idea. Jumphosts in general should also solely run an sshd and nothing else.

Re: [swinog] hosting for 1 powersupply with lan port
ok, more to the details. I. SSH auth. forwarding = on my PC, I have my private SSH key, encrypted with a good password. As I control this environment, I make sure this is the only copy of my private key, and all backup copies are encrypted with other passwords. On my VPS that I use as a jumphost, I have my public key in .ssh/authorized_keys. So my login does not even have a password on that server. When I'm logged in to the VPS, I can do ssh -A ssinyagin@1.2.3.4 with this command, the server 1.2.3.4 authenticates me through my public key, and the VPS acts as the SSH agent proxy. So, if that server has my public key in .ssh/authorized_keys, I'm easily in, and no security breach on the VPS would affect my security. II. Secure data on a foreign machine == so, your VPS is in an untrusted environment, and you need to store sensitive data on it (e.g. VPN configuration and keys). You create a cryptfs folder, mount it with a manually entered password, and store your sensitive data on it. As long as the server is running, your processes can access the data. If the server reboots, it needs to notify the operator via email or SMS, and the operator logs in and mounts the cryptfs again. Of course depending on the virtualization technology, your provider may log in from the VM console and see your data. So, you either trust your provider, or use a physical machine like pcengines. On the latest DENOG meeting, there was an interesting report that offline RAM chips still hold traces of your data for few hours, so be careful with that too :) As an alternative to cryptfs, you can mount a RAM disk and initialize its content from your home location via an SSH tunnel. If you use Git, you can also do incremental updates to the running system. III. Off-site backups == what I do is let my home NAS pack the data directory, encrypt it with AES256, and push towards the VPS server. So, nightly I transfer a few hundred megabytes. It works fine as long as I keep the footprint within reasonable limits. As an alternative, there was somewhere a project that modifies rsync in a way that it can work with encrypted data on the remote site. did I miss something? > > From: Silvan Gebhardt >To: swinog@lists.swinog.ch >Sent: Saturday, June 2, 2012 11:50 AM >Subject: Re: [swinog] hosting for 1 powersupply with lan port > > >Good Morning! > > >The cloud is completely anonymous, that makes the feeling to do something (as a provider) much lower in my opinion.

Re: [swinog] hosting for 1 powersupply with lan port
Good morning, If you care so much about physical penetration of your equipment, why bother with local storage anyway. There are enough solution out there, which do not need to have a installed system. As example: Coreboot with etherboot (payload) this combination allows you to load a system with a http server and there is even a so called SafeBootMode with verification of your boot-image. After that you only need an local storage, which could be a ramdisk or an encrypted tmp / swap hard or flash drive. So there wouldn't be any necessity to obscure your hardware anyhow and all further penetration vectors would need a higher sophistication. PS: I do agree that PCengines do need more RAM. A version with at least 512MB would be highly appreciated.

Re: [swinog] hosting for 1 powersupply with lan port
Interesting topic, especially looking at the current cloud trends. We've been discussing this internally and came to the conclusion, that as long as someone has physical access to a server, he will always be capable of reading the data on that server with more or less effort. Even using a high level of physical security to ensure, nobody has physical access to the box can be broken with enough time and effort, especially from the people housing the box. In the end, all you need is trust. If you trust the people housing your box and if you trust their ability to keep the bad guys physically away, everything is fine. If you can't trust them you are lost in any case.
