SafeOrbit - Protect your memory in .NET 🛡️

What

SafeOrbit is an advanced memory protection library with easy to use classes.

  • Protects your strings in memory while allowing you to securely compare & modify them with SafeString.
  • Protects your binary data with SafeBytes.
  • Anti injection module safeguards your application against memory injections and timing attacks using SafeObject, SafeContainer (injection aware DI container) and more.
  • Leverages high performance and secure algorithms for encryption, hashing and random in interfaces that makes it much hard to screw up.

Why

  • You want to secure strings in memory and modify & compare them without revealing them in memory.
  • You want to take advantage of security best-practices without having any cryptology knowledge.
  • You want to use high-performance algorithms in .NET such as Murmur32 hashing and Blowfish encryption.
  • You do not trust OS generated crypto randoms and want direct access to entropy hashes or non-OS PNRG seeded by them.

Memory security

SafeString

  • SafeString represents an encrypted string that guarantees to not leak your data in the memory while allowing modifications and comparisons.
  • It has more advantages over System.Security.SecureString because of the security design of the SafeOrbit.

SafeBytes

  • SafeBytes is protected sequence of bytes in memory.
  • It's a lower level module used by SafeString.
  • You can hide any data from the memory, then modify and compare them safely without revealing the bytes.

Detect injections

  • You can detect injections for any of your .NET class including their
    • the state (data in the memory)
    • code that's loaded in memory
  • Internal protection for SafeOrbit library be enabled as default.

SafeObject

An object that can detect memory injections to itself.

    var safeObject = new SafeObject<Customer>();
    // Each change to the object's state or code must be using ApplyChanges
    safeObject.ApplyChanges((customer) => customer.SensitiveInfo = "I'm protected!");
    // Retrieve safe data
    var safeInfo = safeObject.Object.SensitiveInfo; // returns "I'm protected!" or alerts if any injection is detected

SafeContainer

  • SafeContainer is a dependency container that detects and notifies injections to its instances.
  • It's security mode can be changed dynamically.

InjectionDetector

  • A service that's consumed by SafeContainer and SafeObject.
  • Lowest level of the injection detection and alerting mechanism.

Cryptography

Encryption

Supported:

  • Asynchronous encryption using cryptostreams.
  • ISafeEncryptor a.k.a. AES-256
    • Considered as one of the strongest encryption algorithms.
    • Easy-to-use interface using best-practices such as PBKDF2 key derivation, random IV, salt and PKCS7 padding.
  • IFastEncryptor a.k.a. Blowfish
    • Considered as one of the fastest encryption algorithms.
    • ECB & CBC (with IV) implementation that passes the vector tests.

Hashers

Supported :

  • ISafeHasher a.k.a. SHA512 for higher security.
  • IFastHasher a.k.a. MurmurHash (Murmur32) for better performance, it should be seeded and salted.

Random

What if your OS crypto random has in any way been undermined (for example, by a nefarious government agency, or simple incompetence)?

SafeOrbit guarantees not to reduce the strength of your crypto random. It has the ability to improve the strength of your crypto random:

  • SafeRandom combines different entropy sources
  • FastRandom is a simple wrapper around a PRNG, which uses SafeRandom for seed material.

Speed up

  • For better performance, it's highly recommended to start the application early in your application start with SafeOrbitCore.Current.StartEarlyAsync();.

  • Memory injection is enabled as default.

    • It provides self security on client side applications, but on a protected server disabling the memory injection for more performance is recommended. Read more on wiki.
