Secure your system

DataStax Mission Control is currently in Public Preview. DataStax Mission Control is not intended for production use, has not been certified for production workloads, and might contain bugs and other functional issues. There is no guarantee that DataStax Mission Control will ever become generally available. DataStax Mission Control is provided on an “AS IS” basis, without warranty or indemnity of any kind.

If you are interested in trying out DataStax Mission Control please join the Public Preview.

DataStax Mission Control enables authentication and authorization by default.

For configuration details, see:

  • authentication

  • DSE Unified Authentication

Securing the Mission Control UI

Secure the DataStax Mission Control User Interface (UI) and its REST API through Dex. DataStax Mission Control allows configuring authentication through OpenLDAP or OpenID connectors:

  • Configure DataStax Mission Control to use LDAP for authentication

  • Configure DataStax Mission Control to use OpenID for authentication

Additionally, DataStax Mission Control allows you to define a single admin user during the installation of its Control-Plane.

Securing DSE and Apache Cassandra® clusters

Managing authentication and credentials

DataStax Mission Control creates K8ssandra clusters. DataStax Mission Control enables authentication and authorization by default. See K8ssandra secrets for detailed setup information.

Rotating Superuser Credentials

The superuser credentials can be rotated by updating the corresponding secret directly. DataStax Mission Control detects the change and updates the credentials in the DSE or Cassandra cluster.

Encryption

Optionally, it is possible to increase encryption of data stored within DSE or Cassandra by simply enabling or disabling configuration settings. Choose one of the following methods:

  • Internode encryption

  • Client to node encryption

  • Transparent Data Encryption (TDE)

Install Data Plane Authentication
