Configures SSO authentication and SCIM 2.0 provisioning for CockroachDB across four distinct layers — Cloud Console SSO (SAML/OIDC), DB Console SSO (OIDC), SQL/Cluster SSO (JWT or LDAP/AD), and SCIM 2.0 automated provisioning. Use when enabling centralized identity management, setting up SSO for compliance, or automating user lifecycle management.
Audits a self-hosted CockroachDB cluster against the CIS CockroachDB Benchmark v1.0.0 Level 1 controls. Supports two audit depths — quick automated scans and full CIS audit procedures. Produces a structured PASS/FAIL/MANUAL report covering installation, system hardening, logging, user access, data protection, and CockroachDB settings. Use when preparing for CIS compliance assessments, hardening self-hosted deployments, or validating security posture against industry benchmarks.
Audits the security posture of a CockroachDB cluster (Cloud or self-hosted) across network, authentication, authorization, encryption, audit logging, and backup dimensions. Use when assessing cluster security readiness, preparing for compliance reviews, or investigating security configuration gaps.
Configures SQL audit logging on CockroachDB clusters to capture security-relevant events including authentication, privilege changes, and sensitive data access. Use when enabling audit logging for compliance, setting up role-based audit policies, or verifying audit configuration.
Configures and hardens IP allowlists for CockroachDB Cloud clusters to restrict network access to authorized CIDR ranges. Use when tightening network security, removing overly permissive allowlist entries like 0.0.0.0/0, or setting up allowlists for a new cluster.
Configures log and metric export for CockroachDB Cloud clusters to external monitoring services including AWS CloudWatch, GCP Cloud Logging, and Datadog. Use when setting up log export for audit compliance, configuring metric export for monitoring, or troubleshooting log delivery issues.
Configures private network connectivity for CockroachDB Cloud clusters including AWS PrivateLink, GCP Private Service Connect, Azure Private Link, egress private endpoints, and VPC peering. Use when setting up private endpoints to eliminate public internet exposure, configuring egress to external services like Kafka, or establishing VPC peering.
Hardens CockroachDB user privileges by auditing and tightening role-based access control, reducing admin grants, restricting PUBLIC role permissions, and applying least-privilege principles. Use when reducing excessive privileges, cleaning up admin access, or implementing RBAC best practices.
