AgentMem implements a multi-layered security model:

1. Authentication: Verify user identity
2. Authorization: Control access to resources
3. Encryption: Protect data in transit and at rest
4. Audit Logging: Track security events
5. Input Validation: Prevent injection attacks

Default authentication method

// Generate token
let token = jwt::encode(
    &Header::default(),
    &Claims::new(user_id, expiration),
    &EncodingKey::from_secret(secret.as_ref()),
)?;

Features:

• Stateless authentication
• Configurable expiration
• Refresh token support
• Secure secret management

For service-to-service communication

curl -H "X-API-Key: your-api-key" \
  http://localhost:8080/api/v1/memories

Features:

• Per-service keys
• Key rotation support
• Scope-based permissions

For web UI

• Secure session cookies
• CSRF protection
• Session timeout

AgentMem supports fine-grained permissions:

• Admin: Full system access
• User: Standard user access
• Service: Service account access
• Read-Only: Read-only access

• memory:read - Read memories
• memory:write - Create/update memories
• memory:delete - Delete memories
• agent:manage - Manage agents
• user:manage - Manage users
• system:admin - System administration

Memories are scoped by:

• User: User-specific memories
• Agent: Agent-specific memories
• Organization: Organization-wide memories
• Session: Session-specific memories

• TLS 1.2+ for all HTTP connections
• HTTPS required in production
• Certificate validation

• Database encryption (optional)
• Vector store encryption (optional)
• Backup encryption (recommended)

• Multi-tenancy: Complete data isolation
• Scoped access: Memory scoping
• User separation: User-level isolation

Recommended Ports:

• 8080: HTTP API (internal)
• 8443: HTTPS API (production)
• 9090: Metrics (internal)

Block:

• Direct database access
• Internal service ports

• API rate limits: Prevent abuse
• IP-based throttling: DDoS protection
• User-based limits: Fair usage

// Production CORS settings
let cors = Cors::default()
    .allow_origin("https://yourdomain.com")
    .allow_methods([Method::GET, Method::POST])
    .allow_headers([CONTENT_TYPE, AUTHORIZATION]);

Security vulnerabilities should be reported privately:

1. Email: security@agentmem.dev
2. PGP Key: [Link to key]
3. Response Time: Within 48 hours
4. Disclosure: Coordinated disclosure

• Description of vulnerability
• Steps to reproduce
• Potential impact
• Suggested fix (if any)

• Do not publicly disclose until fixed
• Do not exploit vulnerabilities
• Do allow time for fix
• Do coordinate disclosure

1. Use Strong Secrets

   # Generate secure secret
   openssl rand -base64 32

2. Enable HTTPS

   [server]
   tls_enabled = true
   tls_cert = "/path/to/cert.pem"
   tls_key = "/path/to/key.pem"

3. Regular Updates

   • Keep AgentMem updated
   • Update dependencies
   • Monitor security advisories

4. Audit Logging

   [observability]
   audit_logging = true
   log_level = "info"

5. Backup Encryption

   # Encrypted backup
   tar czf - data/ | gpg -c > backup.tar.gz.gpg

1. Input Validation

   // Validate user input
   if content.len() > MAX_MEMORY_LENGTH {
       return Err(Error::InvalidInput);
   }

2. SQL Injection Prevention

   • Use parameterized queries
   • Validate all inputs
   • Use ORM where possible

3. XSS Prevention

   • Sanitize user input
   • Use content security policy
   • Escape output

4. Secret Management

   // Use environment variables
   let api_key = std::env::var("API_KEY")
       .expect("API_KEY not set");

1. Monitor: Security advisories
2. Assess: Vulnerability severity
3. Patch: Apply security fixes
4. Test: Verify fixes
5. Deploy: Update production
6. Notify: Inform users

• Current Version: Full support
• Previous Version: Security patches only
• Older Versions: No support

• Failed authentication attempts
• Rate limit violations
• Unusual access patterns
• Error rates

• Multiple failed logins
• Unusual API usage
• Security events
• System anomalies

• Production Deployment
• Monitoring
• Backup & Recovery

• Email: security@agentmem.dev
• PGP: [Link to key]
• Response Time: 48 hours
