Welcome to our series of interview blogs for the upcoming Percona Live Europe 2017 in Dublin. This series highlights a number of talks that will be at the conference and gives a short preview of what attendees can expect to learn from the presenter.
This first blog post is with Giuseppe Maxia of VMware. His talk is titled A Quick Tour of MySQL 8.0 Roles. MySQL 8.0 introduced …
[Read more]In the quest to secure MySQL as well as ease the number of complicated passwords to remember, many organizations are looking into external authentication, especially using LDAP. For free and open source, Percona’s PAM authentication plugin is the standard option.
tl;dr is I go through how to compile php-cli for use with auth_pam plugin.
Background
There are two plugins that can be used. From the documentation, the two plugins are:

Join Percona’s, Senior Architect, Matthew Boehm as he presents MySQL Disk Encryption with LUKS on Wednesday, August 2, 2017, at 1:00 pm PDT / 4:00 pm EDT (UTC-7).
Clients require strong security measures for PCI, HIPAA or PHI. You must encrypt MySQL “at rest” to satisfy the data managed under these standards. InnoDB’s built-in encryption features work, but there are some caveats to that solution.
In this talk, you’ll see how to encrypt your entire disk to protect everything from data, redo logs and binary logs.

[Read more]A SaaS product needs to use security measures you might not ordinarily use in an on-premises solution. In particular, it’s important that all sensitive data be secured. Encryption plays an important role in information security. At VividCortex, we encrypt data in-flight and at-rest, so your sensitive data is never exposed.
We use Go and MySQL extensively at VividCortex and thought other Go programmers might be interested to see how we’ve integrated encryption into our services layer (APIs). (And if you'd like to learn more about programming with Go in general, please take a look at our free ebook The Ultimate Guide to Building Database-Driven Apps with Go.)

In this blog post, we’ll look at how to set up Percona PAM with Active Directory for external authentication.
In my previous article on Percona PAM, I demonstrated how to use Samba as a domain, and how easy it is to create domain users and groups via the samba-tool. Then we configured nss-pam-ldapd and nscd to enumerate user and group information via LDAP calls, and authenticate users from this source.
This time around, I will demonstrate two other ways of using Active Directory for external authentication by joining the domain via SSSD or Winbind. System Security Services Daemon (SSSD) allows you to configure …
