Security Guardrails & Hardening — OQENS Cloud Docs

SQL statement filtering, execution timeouts, role isolation, and encryption.

OQENS enforces multi-layer defense mechanisms across SQL parsing, network ingress, and database process boundaries.

Blocked SQL Operations

The SQL gateway parses and rejects dangerous operations prior to execution:

Blocked Command / Function Risk Mitigated
DROP DATABASE Accidental or malicious database destruction
ALTER SYSTEM Server configuration modification
COPY ... TO/FROM PROGRAM Arbitrary host OS command execution
PG_READ_FILE, PG_WRITE_FILE Local file system exploration or tamper
PG_EXECUTE_SERVER_PROGRAM Privilege escalation

Execution Limits & Cutoffs

  • Hard Query Timeout: 15,000ms (15 seconds). Long-running statements are killed via statement_timeout.
  • Max Unconstrained Limit: 500 rows if no LIMIT clause is present.
  • Max Table Page Size: 200 rows per request.

Encryption & TLS Standards

  • Transport Layer: TLS 1.3 encryption with ECDHE key exchange and HSTS headers.
  • Password Storage: PBKDF2-SHA256 with cryptographically random per-user salts (100,000 iterations).
