Deploying Trend Micro Smart Check on OpenShift

Get started running Smart Check on OpenShift.

Getting Started

1. Create Overrides. Change the service type to LoadBalancer if you have a Load Balancer

   cat <<EOF > overrides.yml
   activationCode: 'HULA'
   auth:
     secretSeed: 'just_anything-really_anything'
     userName: 'admin'
     password: 'trendmicro'
   persistence:
     enabled: true
   service:
     type: NodePort
   db:
     host: postgresql
     port: 5432
     user: dssc
     password: dssc
     tls:
       mode: disable
   EOF

2. Create a project for Smart Check. For simplicity, we're going to deploy the database into the same project later on.

   oc new-project smartcheck

3. Create new Security Context Constraints for Smart Check. The defined one is a copy from the default restricted with a changed priority and runAsUser value. Assign the scc to the default service user within the project.

   cat <<EOF | oc apply -f -
   kind: SecurityContextConstraints
   apiVersion: security.openshift.io/v1
   metadata:
     name: smartcheck
   allowHostDirVolumePlugin: false
   allowHostIPC: false
   allowHostNetwork: false
   allowHostPID: false
   allowHostPorts: false
   allowPrivilegeEscalation: true
   allowPrivilegedContainer: false
   allowedCapabilities: null
   apiVersion: security.openshift.io/v1
   defaultAddCapabilities: null
   fsGroup:
     type: MustRunAs
   groups:
   - system:authenticated
   priority: 10
   readOnlyRootFilesystem: false
   requiredDropCapabilities:
   - KILL
   - MKNOD
   - SETUID
   - SETGID
   runAsUser:
     type: MustRunAs
   seLinuxContext:
     type: MustRunAs
   supplementalGroups:
     type: RunAsAny
   users: []
   volumes:
   - configMap
   - downwardAPI
   - emptyDir
   - persistentVolumeClaim
   - projected
   - secret
   EOF
   
   oc adm policy add-scc-to-user smartcheck -z default

4. Next, setup a PostgreSQL

   oc process -n openshift postgresql-persistent -o yaml \
     -p POSTGRESQL_USER=dssc \
     -p POSTGRESQL_PASSWORD=dssc \
     -p POSTGRESQL_DATABASE=dssc \
     | oc create -f -

5. The created user within the postgresql does not have the required permissions create database and create role which we need to grant to the user dssc. Connect to the database with

   oc rsh $(oc get pods -o json | jq -r '.items[].metadata | select(.name | startswith("postgres")) | .name' | grep -v deploy)

   Within the new shell...

   psql

   alter role dssc with createdb createrole;

6. Install Smart Check

   helm install -n smartcheck --values overrides.yml smartcheck https://github.com/deep-security/smartcheck-helm/archive/master.tar.gz

Result

If everything worked correctly you should have a running Smart Check deployment on your cluster.

In case you're using CodeReady Containers do the following to enable access to Smart Check:

oc create route passthrough --service proxy --hostname smartcheck.testing

Finally, add smartcheck.testing to the line with some other .testing names. Example:

192.168.64.2 smartcheck.testing api.crc.testing console-openshift-console.apps-crc.testing default-route-openshift-image-registry.apps-crc.testing oauth-openshift.apps-crc.testing

Access Smart Check with your broswer with https://smartcheck.testing.
