# Security Features Testing Summary

## Test Results: ✅ ALL PASSED

**Date:** 2025-11-25  
**Test Mode:** CLI (Fully Automated)  
**User:** postgres  
**Total Tests:** 10/10 Passed

---

## Features Tested

### 1. Security Flags ✅
- `--retention-days`: Backup retention period (default 30 days)
- `--min-backups`: Minimum backups to keep (default 5)
- `--max-retries`: Connection retry attempts (default 3)
- `--allow-root`: Allow running as root/Administrator
- `--check-resources`: System resource limit checks

### 2. Backup Retention Policy ✅
- **Tested:** 30-day retention with min 2 backups
- **Result:** Old backups (>30 days) successfully removed
- **Files Removed:** db_old_test_40days.dump, db_old_test_35days.dump
- **Preserved:** Recent backups (<30 days) and .sha256/.info files
- **Log Output:** "Cleaned up old backups" with count and freed space

### 3. Rate Limiting ✅
- **Implementation:** Exponential backoff (1s→2s→4s→8s→16s→32s→60s max)
- **Per-host Tracking:** Independent retry counters for each database host
- **Auto-reset:** 5-minute timeout after last attempt
- **Max Retries:** Configurable via `--max-retries`

### 4. Privilege Checks ✅
- **Detection:** Identifies root/Administrator execution
- **Warning:** Logs security recommendation
- **Override:** `--allow-root` flag for intentional elevated privileges
- **Platform Support:** Unix (uid=0) and Windows (admin group)

### 5. Resource Limit Checks ✅
- **Unix:** RLIMIT_NOFILE (file descriptors), RLIMIT_NPROC (processes)
- **Windows:** Memory and handle limits
- **Validation:** Pre-backup system resource verification
- **Configurable:** Enable/disable via `--check-resources`

### 6. High-Priority Features (Previous Implementation) ✅
- **Path Sanitization:** Prevents directory traversal attacks
- **Checksum Verification:** SHA-256 for all backup files
- **Audit Logging:** Complete operation trail
- **Secure Permissions:** 0600 for backups, 0644 for metadata

## Test Execution

### Run Full Test Suite
```bash
sudo /root/dbbackup/test_as_postgres.sh
```

### Test Retention Policy
```bash
sudo /root/dbbackup/test_retention.sh
```

### Manual Testing
```bash
# As postgres user
su - postgres -c "cd /tmp/dbbackup_test && ./dbbackup backup single postgres --retention-days 30 --min-backups 5 --debug"
```

---

## File Verification

### Backup Files Created ✅
```
/var/lib/pgsql/db_backups/db_postgres_20251125_151935.dump       (822 B)
/var/lib/pgsql/db_backups/db_postgres_20251125_151935.dump.sha256 (125 B)
/var/lib/pgsql/db_backups/db_postgres_20251125_151935.dump.info   (209 B)
```

### Checksum Verification ✅
```bash
sha256sum -c /var/lib/pgsql/db_backups/db_postgres_*.dump.sha256
# All checksums: OK
```

### Metadata Files ✅
Contains: timestamp, database, user, host, size, backup type

---

## Configuration Persistence ✅

**File:** `/tmp/dbbackup_test/.dbbackup.conf`

```ini
[security]
retention_days = 30
min_backups = 5
max_retries = 3
```

**Verification:**
```bash
grep 'retention_days' /tmp/dbbackup_test/.dbbackup.conf
# Output: retention_days = 30
```

---

## Performance

- **Backup Speed:** ~200ms for small database (postgres)
- **Retention Cleanup:** <50ms for 3 old files
- **Resource Check:** <10ms for privilege + resource validation

---

## Next Steps

### For Production Use
1. ✅ All MEDIUM priority security features implemented
2. ✅ All HIGH priority security features implemented
3. ✅ Configuration persistence working
4. ✅ Automated testing successful

### Remaining LOW Priority Features
- Backup encryption (at-rest)
- Multi-factor authentication integration
- Advanced intrusion detection
- Compliance reporting (GDPR, HIPAA)

---

## Commands Reference

### Backup with Security Features
```bash
# Single database with retention
./dbbackup backup single <database> --retention-days 30 --min-backups 5

# Cluster backup with resource checks
./dbbackup backup cluster --check-resources --max-retries 3

# Sample backup with all features
./dbbackup backup sample <database> --ratio 10 --retention-days 7
```

### Interactive Mode (TUI)
```bash
# Standard interactive menu
./dbbackup interactive

# With auto-select (for testing)
./dbbackup interactive --auto-select 0 --auto-database postgres
```

---

## Test Environment

- **OS:** Linux (CentOS/RHEL compatible)
- **Database:** PostgreSQL 13+
- **User:** postgres
- **Backup Directory:** `/var/lib/pgsql/db_backups`
- **Test Directory:** `/tmp/dbbackup_test`
