    Abstract

    This IBM Redbooks Solution Guide is an initial guide that introduces cloud security considerations for IBM® Power Systems™. Power Systems are uniquely suited for cloud environments, with their industry leading virtualization, enterprise-class security, elastic scalability, and reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS). Power Systems provide the necessary memory bandwidth and compute power to deliver performance that big data, analytics, and other compute-intensive cloud services require. The first objectives of this guide are to examine how Power Systems can fit into the current and developing cloud computing landscape, and to outline the proven IBM Cloud Computing Reference Architecture (CCRA) that IBM employs in building private and hybrid cloud environments.

    We then take a look at the underlying technology, and hone in on some of the security aspects for the different sub-systems:

    - IBM Hardware Management Console

    - IBM PowerVM®

    - IBM PowerKVM

    - IBM PowerVC

    - IBM Cloud Manager with OpenStack

    If you want to find out more about this topic, we encourage you to also download the accompanying IBM Redbooks publication.

    Contents

    IBM® Power Systems™ are uniquely suited for cloud environments, with their industry leading virtualization, enterprise-class security, elastic scalability, and reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS). As with most new technology paradigms, security concerns surrounding cloud computing have become the most widely talked-about inhibitor of widespread usage, whether for public, private, or hybrid cloud installations.

    In this IBM Redbooks® Solution Guide, we describe some of the processes and tools that should be implemented by system architects or administrators to ensure that your Power System-based private cloud environment is secure. Figure 1 shows an example Power Systems cloud structure.

    Did you know?

    IBM Power Systems provide a choice of hypervisor, using either IBM PowerVM® or the open source IBM PowerKVM.

    PowerVM efficiently uses system resources and imposes a negligible impact on performance, because PowerVM is designed for and built directly into the firmware of all Power Systems. Being part of the firmware also means that PowerVM is secure by design.

    IBM PowerKVM presents a choice for organizations looking for a low cost, open source virtualization solution for Linux on Power Systems built on the IBM POWER8™ architecture. IBM PowerKVM provides support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES), and Ubuntu guests.

    Business value

    Interest in cloud computing is strong among today’s Chief Information Officers (CIOs) and business leaders. In one recent IBM study (Source: Under Cloud Cover, IBM Center for Applied Insights, 2013), it was found that the cloud's strategic importance to decision-makers, such as Chief Executive Officers (CEOs), Chief Marketing Officers (CMOs), finance, Human Resources (HR), and procurement executives, is poised to double from 34% - 72%. The survey found that one out of five organizations is ahead of the curve on cloud adoption and achieving competitive advantage, not just cutting costs and driving efficiency, through cloud computing.

    Pacesetters in cloud adoption have reported impressive competitive advantages from cloud computing, but the journey has not been easy. Forty-four percent of respondents believe that cloud introduces greater complexity into their organization. To manage this growing complexity, early adopters are more likely to share the following characteristics:

    • Have an enterprise-wide cloud strategy
    • Favor open source cloud platforms
    • Use a hybrid cloud
    • Have executive support for cloud experimentation

    The following list describes some key business drivers for business adoption of cloud computing:
    • Use cloud infrastructure with confidence that they are secure, compliant, and meet regulatory requirements.
    • Leverage existing investment, and extend current infrastructure to implement security for virtual infrastructure.
    • Decrease delivery and provisioning time for secure new services through standardization and automation.
    • Maintain service-level compliance, accuracy, repeatability, and traceability for the cloud environment.
    • Align Information Technology (IT) resource allocation with business goals.

    A cloud computing environment built with IBM Power Systems can help organizations transform their data centers to become cloud ready.

    Power Systems are uniquely suited for cloud environments, with their industry leading virtualization, enterprise-class security, elastic scalability, and reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS). Power Systems provide the necessary memory bandwidth and compute power to deliver performance that big data, analytics, and other compute-intensive cloud services require.

    Solution overview

    The IBM Cloud Computing Reference Architecture (CCRA) provides prescriptive guidance on how to best build cloud computing implementations.

    The CCRA V3.0 identifies four cloud adoption patterns:
    • Cloud-enabled data center, also called Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
    • Platform Services, also called Platform as a Service (PaaS)
    • Software Services, also called Software as a Service (SaaS)
    • Cloud service provider (CSP)

    Some of the attributes of each adoption pattern are shown in Figure 2. Different security controls are appropriate for different cloud needs. The challenge becomes one of integration, coexistence, and recognizing what solution is best for a given workload.

    IBM cloud security: One size does not fit all
    Figure 2. IBM cloud security: One size does not fit all

    Based on the IBM Security Framework, the CCRA articulates eight Foundational Controls to address security in cloud environments:
    • Cloud governance
    • Security governance, risk management, and compliance
    • Problem and information security incident management
    • Identity and access management
    • Discover, categorize, and protect data and information assets
    • Information systems acquisition, development, and maintenance
    • Secure infrastructure against threats and vulnerabilities
    • Physical and personnel security

    An overview of the IBM security framework and cloud foundational controls can be seen in Figure 3.

    Cloud-enabled data centers

    IaaS is the typical starting point for most organizations when moving to a cloud computing environment. IaaS can be used for the delivery of resources, such as compute, storage, and network services, through a self-service portal. This solution guide takes a close look at secure implementations of Power Systems in a private cloud-enabled data center or IaaS cloud. Because hybrid cloud solutions become increasingly important, we also discuss security considerations when planning to extend your private cloud with hybrid functionality.

    Note: When implementing a private cloud, you have several choices. You can build it yourself on premises, or you can contract a CSP to provide it for you. If you are evaluating CSPs, the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) has several documents that enable you to assess the potential security risks associated with CSPs. See https://cloudsecurityalliance.org for more details.

    The IBM CCRA security architecture describes five key security requirements for cloud-enabled data centers:
    • Manage identities and access:
      • Manage data center identities and securely connect users to the cloud (authentication and authorization)
      • Provide role-based access to cloud resources, image library, and storage
      • Provision user IDs on the virtual machine (VM) for access to the VM or LPAR
      • Manage confidentiality and integrity of the storage, images, and metadata associated with the master image
      • Privileged administrator management
    • Protect virtual infrastructure:
      • Secure and protect the virtual infrastructure (VM instances, LPARs, and hypervisors) according to IT Security Policy
      • Storage encryption
      • Network protection through firewalls and intrusion prevention systems (IPS)
      • Host security and vulnerability scanning
    • Patch default images:
      • Image library and software catalog
    • Provide visibility into virtual infrastructure:
      • Maintaining audit logs for virtual infrastructure compliance and audit readiness
      • Monitoring cloud infrastructure
      • Monitor and manage workloads
    • Network isolation:
      • Implement virtual local area networks (VLANs), physical network separation, firewall devices, and intrusion detection systems as appropriate

    In the following sections, we provide suggestions about how to improve the security of your Power Systems cloud infrastructure. It is the responsibility of the reader to ensure that their environment is compliant with whatever regulations, standards, or security frameworks are applicable to them.

    Cloud computing and regulatory compliance

    Regulatory compliance refers to externally imposed conditions on transactions in business systems and their companies. Regulations can be imposed by industry bodies, regulatory agencies, and government agencies.

    Non-conformance with regulations can result in legal ramifications. A civil or criminal liability or regulatory penalty from a security incident, or attack, negatively affects your business.

    Applicable regulations and steps to ensure compliance must be factored into cloud projects.

    The following partial list is intended as a starting point for researching what standards and regulations are applicable to your cloud environment:

    Note: It is not possible to provide a complete list of all security standards and frameworks to cover every country or industry.

    Solution architecture

    The IBM Power Systems cloud offerings can be broken down into five distinct layers (also see the first figure, Figure 1):
    • Hypervisors
    • Platform management
    • Advanced virtualization management
    • Cloud management and advanced cloud management
    • Guest operating systems (LPARs or VMs)

    Next, examine these layers in a bit more detail.

    Hypervisors

    PowerVM makes efficient use of system resources and imposes a negligible impact on performance, because PowerVM is designed for and built directly into the firmware of all Power Systems. Being part of the firmware also means that PowerVM is secure by design, with zero reported Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) for the PowerVM hypervisor in the US Government National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST, source: http://nvd.nist.gov) National Vulnerabilities Database (NVD). PowerVM supports IBM AIX®, Power Linux, and IBM i as guest operating systems.

    IBM PowerKVM presents a choice for organizations looking for a low-cost, open source virtualization solution for Linux on Power Systems built on the POWER8 architecture. IBM PowerKVM provides support for RHEL, SLES, and Ubuntu guests, and is optimized for Power Systems, with support for processor and memory sharing over-commit for higher utilizations, dynamic addition and removal of virtual devices, and live VM migration.

    Platform management

    Platform management is usually implemented using a web interface, and enables basic interaction with the hypervisor, including such things as create and delete LPARs or VMs, start and stop instances, and so on.

    The IBM Hardware Management Console (HMC) is an appliance for planning, deploying, and managing Power Systems. With the HMC, a system administrator can perform LPAR functions, service functions, and various system management functions by using either the web browser-based user interface (UI), or the command-line interface (CLI).

    The functionality of the HMC extends beyond the basic administration of LPARs, and is described in the IBM Redbooks publication IBM Power Systems HMC Implementation and Usage Guide, SG24-7491. The enhancements to V8 of the HMC, including updates to NIST SP800 131A support, are described in the IBM Redbooks publication IBM Power Systems Hardware Management Console Version 8 Release 8.1.0 Enhancements, SG24-8232.

    The Integrated Virtualization Manager (IVM) is a simplified hardware management solution that inherits most of the HMC features. IVM provides a web-based management interface for a single system, and targets small and medium systems, where use of a dedicated HMC appliance might not be cost-effective. IVM is an enhancement of the Virtual input/output (I/O) Server (VIOS), the product that enables I/O virtualization in Power Systems. The IVM is described in more detail in the IBM Redpaper™ publication Integrated Virtualization Manager for IBM Power Systems Servers, REDP-4061.

    Kimchi is the IBM PowerKVM open source management layer built on open standards including libvirt, virsh, and OpenStack. Kimchi provides a web interface for managing IBM PowerKVM, and virtual machines, built on a Representational State Transfer (REST)-ful application programming interface (API).

    Advanced virtualization management

    Advanced virtualization management tools build on the basic capabilities of platform management tools, and enhance the management of resources, images, and deployments.

    Advanced virtualization management is provided by IBM Power Virtualization Center (IBM PowerVC). Built on OpenStack, it allows Power System cloud infrastructure to plug into a broad array of management solutions.

    IBM PowerVC allows the system administrator to perform the following activities:
    • Create VMs and resize their processor and memory.
    • Attach disk volumes to them.
    • Import existing VMs and volumes so that they can be managed by IBM PowerVC.
    • Monitor the use of the resources that are in your environment.
    • Migrate VMs while they are running (live migration between physical servers).
    • Deploy images quickly to create new VMs that meet the demands of dynamic business needs. At the time of writing this publication, IBM PowerVC can deploy VMs using AIX or Linux operating systems.

    IBM PowerVC is deployed between the HMC and IBM cloud management offerings. It provides a systems management product that large organizations require to effectively manage the advanced features offered by Power Systems hardware. It enhances resource use, and manages workloads for performance and availability.

    Cloud management and advanced cloud management

    Cloud management layers are differentiated from advanced virtualization management layers by the ability to manage hypervisors on different platforms, or even from different vendors.

    IBM Cloud Manager with OpenStack (formerly IBM SmartCloud® Entry) is a modular, highly flexible, and easy to use solution designed to deliver cloud services for private or public clouds, across a heterogeneous infrastructure including Power Systems and x86.

    Cloud administration is simplified through an intuitive interface for managing projects, users, and applications, in addition to monitoring heterogeneous workloads and cloud resources.

    IBM Cloud Manager with OpenStack also provides an entry point to more advanced IBM cloud offerings, such as IBM Cloud Orchestrator.

    IBM offers solutions to deliver advanced cloud capabilities, such as rapid and scalable provisioning optimized for service providers, robust workflow orchestration, virtualization lifecycle management, and sophisticated billing and chargeback with IBM Cloud Orchestrator.

    These solutions, built on open source solutions including OpenStack and Chef, are designed to reduce the risk associated with software integration, and accelerate delivery of advanced cloud computing capabilities.

    Guest operating systems

    The PowerVM hypervisor supports LPARs running either AIX, IBM i, or PowerLinux.

    The IBM PowerKVM hypervisor supports VMs running PowerLinux. The supported distributions are RHEL, SLES, and Ubuntu.

    Security recommendations

    To expand on the five key security requirements identified by the IBM CCRA for a cloud-enabled data center, the accompanying IBM Redbooks publication provides more detailed information and suggestions for securing PowerVM, IBM PowerKVM, IBM PowerVC, and Cloud Manager with OpenStack.

    Manage identities and access

    Consider the following information when planning to manage identities and access:
    • IBM Cloud Manager with OpenStack and IBM PowerVC support Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) as a user authentication directory. IBM Cloud Manager with OpenStack supports OpenLDAP and IBM Directory Server. IBM PowerVC supports OpenLDAP and Microsoft Active Directory. Connections from the management layer server to the directory server should be encrypted with Transport Layer Security (TLS).
    • IBM PowerKVM and PowerVM (VIOS) both support LDAP at the operating system level. However, using LDAP authentication for the hypervisor is not critical, because users access hypervisor resources through other management layers (for example, IBM PowerVC or IBM Cloud Manager with OpenStack).
    • Role-based access should be configured for IBM PowerVC and IBM Cloud Manager with OpenStack. Admin, deployer, and viewer are the three default LDAP roles or user groups used in IBM PowerVC. Keystone is the OpenStack component that handles users' identities. IBM Cloud Manager with OpenStack also supports user roles and group membership through the OpenStack user and tenant model provided by the Keystone component.
    • Management layers that have a web interface (for example, HMC, IVM, Kimchi, IBM PowerVC, and IBM Cloud Manager with OpenStack) should have Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) enabled for user access. Where it is possible to choose which cipher suite is used in Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) handshake negotiation, the strongest suite supported by the user's browsers should be selected. For example, TLS 1.2 might be mandated by some security standards, but might not be supported by all browsers. The authentication process in particular must be encrypted from end-to-end (from user browser to LDAP server).
    • Federated identity management is not essential with an on-premises private cloud, but the growing popularity of hybrid clouds requires consideration to be given to federated identity technologies, such as OpenID, OAuth, and Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML).
    • Manage privileged administrative user access through processes or tools. Access to privileged user accounts, such as root or padmin, should be managed securely to prevent accountability and compliance issues, and to decrease the risk of sabotage and data loss.

    Secure virtual machines

    Consider the following information when planning VM security:
    • Encryption of data at rest can be a requirement of some security standards (for example, PCI-DSS or HIPAA). The hypervisor may support encrypted data at the storage area network (SAN) level by use of a disk array with hardware encryption (for example, IBM DS8000®), or an encrypting SAN switch (for example, SAN32B-E4). An alternative solution is to use an encrypted file system on the guest operating system. Encrypted File System (EFS) and IBM General Parallel File System (IBM GPFS™) on AIX, and dm-crypt, Linux Unified Key Setup (LUKS), or Enterprise Cryptographic File System (eCryptFS) on Linux, are examples.
    • Encryption of data backups is also a factor to be considered. Tape drives with encryption hardware do not impose any performance degradation. Key management also becomes a priority when managing encryption keys across several separate platforms.
    • Packet filtering at the VM host level should also be implemented. On AIX, Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) filters are included in the IP Security (IPSec) packages (bos.net.ipsec.keymgt and bos.net.ipsec.rte). The default packet filter for recent Linux distributions is iptables. Some time must be invested to survey what TCP/IP ports must be allowed through the packet filter, based on administration, management, and application requirements. Access should be restricted to the appropriate IP addresses or subnets wherever possible.
    • Hosts should also be subject to some degree of "hardening" by removing unnecessary software packages (for example, consider whether an HTTP server package is required on a compute node). This is best done at the image library level, but there are both benefits and pitfalls with multi-purpose images. A better approach is to start with a hardened base image, and require the user to choose packages or functionality from a software catalog at deployment time.
    • Standard system administrator best practices should be followed. A non-exhaustive list includes the following actions:
      • Enforcing password policy (complexity, aging, and re-use)
      • Changing default system and application passwords
      • Backing up critical data
      • Using Network Time Protocol (NTP) to synchronize time across all systems
    • Routine vulnerability scanning is also suggested. Scanning can be done on the local host with health check tools, or done remotely over the network, or preferably a combination of both.

    Patch default images

    Consider the following information when planning security patch maintenance:
    • Cloud administrators must be diligent in ensuring that their image library is kept current with regards to security patches. More sophisticated cloud managers have more advanced tools for maintaining image libraries.
    • Compliance tools, such as endpoint managers or management frameworks, can be beneficial in keeping VMs, hypervisors, and management servers up to date with security patches.

    Manage logs and audit data

    Consider the following information when planning to manage logs and audit data:
    • All layers of the Power Systems stack support syslog for logging system events. All management nodes and virtual machines should be configured to forward syslog messages to an event management system at the least. The use of a security information and event management (SIEM) solution is highly suggested, particularly one with advanced threat protection (ATP).
    • In addition to syslog, SIEM systems might have event or audit agents that are required to be installed on the end-points (management servers or VMs).
    • Time must be invested to produce a baseline of events processed by the event manager with minimal false positives. Procedures must be in place for first responders to act on escalated events in a timely manner.

    Network isolation

    Consider the following information when planning network isolation:
    • Management interfaces, such as HMC, IVM, and hypervisors, need to be kept isolated from networks used for VMs, and from other networks.
    • In addition, networks used for functions, such as live migration and backups, should not be accessible by the user.
    • Use the appropriate combination of VLANs, physical network separation, and firewalls as deemed appropriate. Again, the use of next-generation firewalls with integrated IPS and advanced threat protection (ATP) is highly suggested.
    • With increasing uptake of hybrid clouds, virtual private networks (VPNs) also become a requirement. Two-factor authentication is usually a requirement for VPN access.


    Usage scenario

    The following section describes a generic use case in a cloud-enabled data center or IaaS cloud. In Figure 4, the security enforcement points are indicated with numbers.

    Generic use case for a Cloud Enabled Data Center
    Figure 4. Generic use case for a cloud-enabled data center

    The following list numbers provide details about the corresponding security enforcement points shown in Figure 4:
    1. The user logs in to a self-service graphical user interface (GUI) using a web browser. Security considerations include the following factors:
      • The HTTPS connection should be encrypted with appropriate key lengths and ciphers.
      • An LDAP user directory should be used.
      • LDAP authentication should be encrypted end-to-end.
      • The identity lifecycle should be managed in an enterprise-wide manner.
    2. When authenticated, the user should be granted access to appropriate resources based on the user's functional role. Additional fine-grained access controls can be implemented with enterprise-wide access management tools.
    3. Required VM images are selected from a pre-configured image library. Stored images in the image library should have all appropriate management tools installed, and required security policies (end-point management agents, password policy, and so on) should be applied.
    4. Images should then be provisioned onto a dedicated VM network. Segregation of different functional networks (management networks, workgroup or team networks, staging and production networks, and so on) should be enforced with the appropriate combinations of VLANs, physical network separation, firewalls, and access control lists (ACLs). The use of next-generation firewalls with IPS and ATP is highly suggested.
    5. Host security of the VM should be installed or updated when deployed. This might include updating end-point manager policies, configuring logging destinations for event management, or installing specific user keys for access to the VM.
    6. There might be too many combinations of application software versions to allow pre-configured images of every combination to be stored in the image library. Software would then be installed and updated from a software catalog post deployment.
