Milagro-Custody-DTA


Maintenance

Milagro D-TA is a colaborative key management server

Milagro D-TA facilitates secure and auditable communication between people who to use key pairs (Principal) and service providers who can keep the secret keys safe (Master Fiduciary). It is written in Go and uses REST services based on the GoKit microservices framework, it uses IPFS to create a shared immutable log of transactions and relies on Milagro-Crypto-C for it's crypto.

Plugins

Milagro D-TA provides a basic set of services for creating identities for actors in the system, and passing encrypted communication between them but it assumes that different service providers will have their own “special sauce” for securely storing secret keys, so the vanilla services can be extended using a plugin framework. Two basic plugins are included in this release to give you an idea of how this can be done.

  1. BitcoinPlugin Generates a Bitcoin address and reveals the corresponding secret key
  2. SafeGuardSecret Encrypts a string and decrypts it again

Instalation

To see Milagro D-TA in action you can run Milagro D-TA in a docker container

git clone https://github.com/apache/incubator-milagro-dta.git

cd incubator-milagro-dta

docker build -t mydta .

docker run -p5556:5556 mydta

Dependencies

To correctly build the software on Ubuntu 18.04 you need to install the following packages;

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends \
     ca-certificates \
     cmake \
     g++ \
     gcc \
     git \
     make \
     libtool \
     automake \
     libssl-dev \
     jq \
     curl
sudo apt-get clean

liboqs

liboqs is a C library for quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithms. It is a API level on top of the NIST round two submissions.

git clone https://github.com/open-quantum-safe/liboqs.git
cd liboqs
git checkout 7cb03c3ce9182790c77e69cd21a6901e270781d6 
autoreconf -i
./configure --disable-shared --disable-aes-ni --disable-kem-bike --disable-kem-frodokem --disable-kem-newhope --disable-kem-kyber --disable-sig-qtesla 
make clean
make -j
sudo make install

AMCL

AMCL is required

Build and install the AMCL library

git clone https://github.com/apache/incubator-milagro-crypto-c.git
cd incubator-milagro-crypto-c
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -D BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON -D AMCL_CHUNK=64 -D AMCL_CURVE="BLS381,SECP256K1" -D AMCL_RSA="" -D BUILD_PYTHON=OFF -D BUILD_BLS=ON -D BUILD_WCC=OFF -D BUILD_MPIN=OFF -D BUILD_X509=OFF -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS="-fPIC" ..
make
make test
sudo make install

Install pqnist

cd incubator-milagro-dta/libs/crypto/libpqnist mkdir build cd build cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local -D BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON .. make make test sudo make install

golang

Download and install Golang

Run service

Set the library paths

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib
export C_INCLUDE_PATH=$C_INCLUDE_PATH:/usr/local/lib

This script will build the service

./build.sh

To run the service

./target/service

Documentation

You can find documentation for Milagro D-TA in the main Milagro docs site

Which includes a quick start guide that will show you how to get Milagro D-TA to “do stuff”

Contributing

Key pairs are becoming central to our online lives, and keeping secret keys safe is a growing industry, we hope to create an ecosystem of custodial service providers who colabroate to make the Internet a safer place for everyone. We are keen to get contributions and feedback from anyone in this space. This is a brand new project so our development processes are still being figured out, but if you have suggestions, questions or wish to make contributions please go ahead raise an issue and someone on the team will get right on it.

Crypto Notice

This distribution includes cryptographic software. The country in which you currently reside may have restrictions on the import, possession, use, and/or re-export to another country, of encryption software. BEFORE using any encryption software, please check your country's laws, regulations and policies concerning the import, possession, or use, and re-export of encryption software, to see if this is permitted. See http://www.wassenaar.org/ for more information.

The Apache Software Foundation has classified this software as Export Commodity Control Number (ECCN) 5D002, which includes information security software using or performing cryptographic functions with asymmetric algorithms. The form and manner of this Apache Software Foundation distribution makes it eligible for export under the “publicly available” Section 742.15(b) exemption (see the BIS Export Administration Regulations, Section 742.15(b)) for both object code and source code.

Disclaimer

Apache Milagro is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the Apache Incubator. Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.
