Enable Data Encryption¶

To ensure data security, it is recommended to enable SSL encryption. Do the following:

Warning

We do not recommend using a self-signed certificate. It can cause the Mobile App to fail.

Under the nginx configuration directory, create a directory that will be used to hold all of the SSL data:
```
sudo mkdir /etc/nginx/ssl
```
Create the SSL key and certificate files:
```
sudo openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout /etc/nginx/ssl/my-example-domain.com.key -out /etc/nginx/ssl/my-example-domain.com.crt
```
You will be asked a few questions about your server in order to embed the information correctly in the certificate. Fill out the prompts appropriately. The most important line is the one that requests the Common Name. You need to enter the domain name or public IP address that you want to be associated with your server. Both of the files you created (my-example-domain.com.key and my-example-domain.com.crt) will be placed in the /etc/nginx/ssl directory.

Configure nginx to use SSL. Open the nginx configuration file /etc/nginx/sites-available/ffsecurity-nginx.conf. Apply the following modifications to the file:

Add the new server {...} section that contains the URL replacement rule:

server {
        listen 80;
        server_name my-example-domain.com www.my-example-domain.com;
        rewrite ^(.*) https://my-example-domain.com$1 permanent;
        access_log off;
}

Comment out the following lines in the existing server {...} section:
```
# listen 80 default_server;
# listen [::]:80 default_server;
```

Add the following lines, including the paths to the certificate and the key, to the existing server {...} section:

listen 443 ssl;

ssl_certificate     /etc/nginx/ssl/my-example-domain.com.crt;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/ssl/my-example-domain.com.key;

In the generic nginx configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf, find the SSL Settings section and append the following lines:

ssl_session_cache   shared:SSL:10m;
ssl_session_timeout 1h;

The example of the configuration file /etc/nginx/sites-available/ffsecurity-nginx.conf with correctly configured SSL settings is shown below:

upstream ffsecurity {
 server 127.0.0.1:8002;
}

upstream ffsecurity-ws {
  server 127.0.0.1:8003;
}

map $http_upgrade $ffsec_upstream {
  default "http://ffsecurity-ws";
  "" "http://ffsecurity";
}

server {
  listen 80;
  server_name my-example-domain.com www.my-example-domain.com;
  rewrite ^(.*) https://my-example-domain.com$1 permanent;
  access_log off;
}

server {
  # listen 80 default_server;
  # listen [::]:80 default_server;
  listen 443 ssl;
  ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/ssl/my-example-domain.com.crt;
  ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/ssl/my-example-domain.com.key;

Restart nginx.
```
sudo systemctl restart nginx.service
```

Edit the findface-security configuration file. In the EXTERNAL_ADDRESS and ROUTER_URL parameters, substitute the http:// prefix with https://.

sudo vi /etc/findface-security/config.py

...
EXTERNAL_ADDRESS="https://my-example-domain.com"
...
ROUTER_URL="https://IP_address"

If there are running findface-video-worker services in the system, you need to either recreate cameras in the web interface, or change the router_url parameter in relevant video processing jobs, substituting the http:// prefix with https://. This can be done with the following command:
```
curl -s localhost:18810/jobs | jq -r '.[]["id"]' | xargs -I {} curl -X PATCH -d '{"router_url": "https://my-example-domain.com/video-detector/frame"}' http://localhost:18810/job/{}
```
