What customers should do

The practical steps that keep a SENTRA deployment as secure as it is designed to be.

Accounts#

  • Turn on two-factor for every administrator, and set the policy to require it (GUARD and VIEW security policy).
  • Give each person their own account with the least role they need; build custom roles rather than sharing an administrator account.
  • Keep at least two top-level administrators, so one lost phone never locks you out.
  • Store the glass-break account's password offline and use it only when the GUARD can't be reached.
  • Review users and roles every quarter; remove leavers the same day.

Licences#

  • Install keys only from SENTRA or your own VIEW or GUARD. Treat key bundles as confidential and delete local copies once installed.
  • Bind stand-alone licences to the box's Installation ID.
  • Allow outbound HTTPS to licensing.sentra-ai.com so revocations and renewals reach your boxes, unless your policy forbids any outside contact.

Updates#

  • Keep systems on the SENTRA release server (never a developer source).
  • Install offered updates promptly, at a time that suits you; read What's new and the expected downtime first.
  • On fleets, lock GUARDs and nodes to signed releases only once every layer runs a version that supports it.
  • Allow outbound HTTPS to updates.sentra-ai.com from the systems that update directly.

Operations#

  • Back up GUARD, VIEW and box configurations regularly and keep copies off the server.
  • Verify the audit ledgers periodically and investigate any break.
  • Send security events to your own monitoring where the product supports it, and watch for alarms.
  • Test the fail-open and bypass procedures in a maintenance window, so the team knows them before an emergency.

Reporting a security issue#
