5. Deploy with TLS¶
5.1. Configure a Reverse Proxy or Kubernetes Ingress Controller¶
To support HTTPS connections, STIG Manager components should be situated behind a reverse proxy or in a Kubernetes cluster. Configure the reverse proxy (such as nginx) or the Kubernetes Ingress Controller in accordance with publisher documentation, local security requirements, and Keycloak documentation. In either case, you will have to set Keycloak environment variable PROXY_ADDRESS_FORWARDING=true and make sure appropriate headers are forwarded.
5.2. STIG Manager with nginx for TLS and CAC Authentication¶
The STIG Manager OSS team provides a repository on GitHub with a sample nginx deployment, with a configuration file that may be useful to those setting up a Production deployment:
