The Long Night
Increase Bus Factor by providing ssh access to server.
How it works
- The server admin runs the installation and sets a password, ssh-key, number of days to add the key after.
- The server admin gives the "bus factor" the password.
- In case of an incident, the "bus factor" visits the webpage and enters the provided password.
- If the correct password is entered, the server admin is notified via all the configured backends that the correct password has been added.
- If the server admin doesn't wish the ssh-key to be added, they can login and
run
cancel-adding-key.sh
in the installation directory.- If the command is run within the configured number of days, then the key is not added and everything returns back to normal and the server starts listening for password again. No new setup is necessary.
- If the command is not run within the configured number of days, then the ssh key is added.
