-====== PBX Security ======
-:!: Only open the required ports and no more to minimize your 'attack surface'.
-===== SELinux =====
-SELinux generally gets in the way, so it is often disabled:
-<file>
-setenforce 0
-vi /etc/selinux/config
-SELINUX=disabled
-</file>
-===== Firewall on the PBX Itself =====
-Some or all of the following ports may need to be opened:
-^Protocol  ^Ports        ^Description                               ^
-|TCP       |80           |HTTP                                      |
-|TCP       |443          |HTTPS                                     |
-|TCP       |4445         |Flash Operator Panel                      |
-|TCP       |10000        |Webmin                                    |
-|UDP       |5060-5061    |SIP                                       |
-|UDP       |10000-20000  |RTP                                       |
-|UDP       |4569         |IAX                                       |
-:!: Two firewall options are Arno's Firewall or the built-in IPtables.
-==== Arno's Firewall ====
-Arno's Firewall is a light weight and comprehensive firewall based on ''iptables'' which is also used in the ASTLinux PBX.
-See also **[[networking:firewall:arno_s_firewall|Arno's Firewall]]**
-==== IPtables ====
-If you plan to use TFTP or FTP on the PBX itself, load a couple of kernel modules and make them survive reboots:
-<file>
-modprobe ip_conntrack_tftp
-modprobe ip_conntrack_ftp
-depmod -a
-</file>
-Now we modify the default firewall rules in a way that survives reboots.
-Add these lines right after the 'accept ssh' (port 22) line:
-<file>
-vi /etc/sysconfig/iptables
--A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
--A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT
--A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --dport 69 -j ACCEPT
--A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --dport 4569 -j ACCEPT
--A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --dport 5060:5061 -j ACCEPT
--A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --dport 10000:20000 -j ACCEPT
-service iptables reload
-iptables -nL
-</file>
-===== Force SSL =====
-First, make sure the ''httpd.conf'' option ''AllowOverride All'' is in effect.  If it is not, the ''.htaccess'' file will not be actuated.
-Create an ''.htaccess'' file in your document root then restart Apache:
-<file>
-vi /var/www/html/.htaccess
-# Force SSL
-RewriteEngine On
-RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
-RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}
-service httpd restart
-</file>
-===== MySQL Root Password =====
-<file>
-mysqladmin -u root password newpassword
-</file>
-or
-<file>
-mysqladmin -u root -p 'oldpassword' password 'newpassword'
-</file>
-===== Fail2Ban =====
-Fail2Ban is a superior tool that monitors various log files looking for brute force attacks.  Once an attack has been identified, the attacker is blocked from further attempts for a preconfigured period of time.
-See **[[networking:linux:fail2ban|Fail2Ban]]**.
-For a base CentOS 6 box, after installing Fail2Ban via the EPEL repo, you can just copy and paste the following in one go to get a basic Fail2Ban installation set up for your PBX:
-<file>
-cat << EOF >> /etc/fail2ban/fail2ban.local

-===== Digium Recommendations =====
-Seven Easy Steps to Better SIP Security on Asterisk:
-  - Don’t accept SIP authentication requests from all IP addresses. Use the ''permit='' and ''deny='' lines in ''sip.conf'' to only allow a reasonable subset of IP addresess to reach each listed extension/user in your ''sip.conf'' file.  Even if you accept inbound calls from "anywhere" (via ''[default]'') don’t let those users reach authenticated elements!
-  - Set ''alwaysauthreject=yes'' in your ''sip.conf'' file. This option has been around for a while (since 1.2?) but the default is ''no'', which allows extension information leakage.  Setting this to ''yes'' will reject bad authentication requests on valid usernames with the same rejection information as with invalid usernames, denying remote attackers the ability to detect existing extensions with brute-force guessing attacks.
-  - Use STRONG passwords for SIP entities. This is probably the most important step you can take.  Don’t just concatenate two words together and suffix it with "1".  If you’ve seen how sophisticated the tools are that guess passwords, you’d understand that trivial obfuscation like that is a minor hindrance to a modern CPU.  Use symbols, numbers, and a mix of upper and lowercase letters at least 12 digits long.
-  - Block your AMI manager ports. Use ''permit='' and ''deny='' lines in manager.conf to reduce inbound connections to known hosts only.  Use strong passwords here, again at least 12 characters with a complex mix of symbols, numbers, and letters.
-  - Allow only one or two calls at a time per SIP entity, where possible. At the worst, limiting your exposure to toll fraud is a wise thing to do.  This also limits your exposure when legitimate password holders on your system lose control of their pass-phrase, writing it on the bottom of the SIP phone, for instance, which I’ve seen.
-  - Make your SIP usernames different than your extensions. While it is convenient to have extension "1234" map to SIP entry "1234" which is also SIP user "1234", this is an easy target for attackers to guess SIP authentication names.  Use the MAC address of the device, or some sort of combination of a common phrase + extension MD5 hash (example: from a shell prompt, try “md5 -s ThePassword5000″)
-  - Ensure your ''[default]'' context is secure.  Don’t allow unauthenticated callers to reach any contexts that allow toll calls.  Permit only a limited number of active calls through your default context (use the "GROUP" function as a counter.)  Prohibit unauthenticated calls entirely (if you don’t want them) by setting ''allowguest=no'' in the ''[general]'' part of ''sip.conf''.
