    • Prepared statements throughout

  2. Data Integrity

    • Foreign key constraints on all relationships
    • ON DELETE CASCADE for proper cleanup
    • UNIQUE constraints prevent duplicates
    • NOT NULL constraints where appropriate

  3. Index Optimization

    CREATE INDEX idx_users_email ON users(email) WHERE email IS NOT NULL;
CREATE INDEX idx_identities_type_identifier ON identities(type, identifier);
CREATE INDEX idx_user_roles_user_id ON user_roles(user_id);
    • Indexes on all frequently queried columns
    • Partial indexes for nullable columns
    • Composite indexes for multi-column queries

  4. Multi-Factor Authentication

    • Separate identities table supports multiple auth methods
    • Email/password AND blockchain address per user
    • Proper credential storage (password hashes, not plaintext)

  5. Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)

    CREATE TYPE user_role AS ENUM ('ADMIN', 'STAFF', 'CLIENT');
CREATE TABLE user_roles (
    user_id INTEGER REFERENCES users(id) ON DELETE CASCADE,
    role user_role NOT NULL,
    UNIQUE(user_id, role)
);

  6. Automatic Timestamp Management

    • Triggers update updated_at automatically
    • Prevents manual timestamp manipulation

  7. Password Security

    • Stored in credential field as bcrypt hash
    • bcrypt with default cost (10) - industry standard
    • No plaintext passwords anywhere

⚠️ Recommendations

  1. Database Connection Encryption (Medium Priority)

    // Current (auth-service/main.go:136)
connStr := fmt.Sprintf("user=%s password=%s dbname=%s host=%s sslmode=disable", ...)

// Recommended for production
connStr := fmt.Sprintf("user=%s password=%s dbname=%s host=%s sslmode=require", ...)

    Impact: Medium Fix: Change sslmode=disable to sslmode=require in all services Status: Documented in DEPLOYMENT.md

  2. Database Backup Encryption

    • Current backup script doesn't encrypt backups
    • Recommend: pg_dump | gpg --encrypt > backup.sql.gpg
    • Status: Documented but not implemented
