add gateway security docs #3197
Conversation
WalkthroughThis pull request introduces a new document that details the security architecture for the Infisical Gateway. The document outlines the security model including the use of a private PKI system with separate certificate chains for each tenant, details the gateway registration process using mutual TLS authentication, and explains the use of the QUIC protocol for secure relay communication. It also describes mechanisms for certificate lifecycle management, continuous verification, and access control to ensure tenant isolation. In addition, the change updates the navigation configuration by adding a reference to the new gateway security document, ensuring it is accessible under the Gateway section. 🪧 TipsChatThere are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

14-17: Content Structure: Private PKI SystemThe “Private PKI System” section is well-structured.
Static Analysis Note: On line 15, a static analysis hint suggests a possible missing comma. Consider reviewing the punctuation in the sentence"Each organization (tenant) in Infisical has its own private PKI system consisting of:"
to ensure optimal clarity.🧰 Tools

21-22: Punctuation for ClarityThe sentence on line 22:
"This hierarchical structure ensures complete isolation between organizations as each has its own independent certificate chain."
might benefit from an additional comma after "organizations" to enhance readability. For example:
"This hierarchical structure ensures complete isolation between organizations, as each has its own independent certificate chain."🧰 Tools

38-42: Article Usage in Certificate ExchangeIn the bullet point describing the certificate exchange during gateway registration (lines 38–42), consider adding an article for clarity. For instance, change:
"Gateway receives a unique certificate signed by organization's Gateway CA along with certificate chain for verification"
to:
"Gateway receives a unique certificate signed by a organization's Gateway CA along with a certificate chain for verification."🧰 Tools

46-48: Article Suggestion in Cloud AuthenticationWithin the “Mutual TLS Authentication” section (around lines 46–48), the bullet for Cloud Authentication starts with:
"Presents certificate signed by organization's Client CA"
It would read more naturally as:
"Presents an certificate signed by organization's Client CA."

107-110: Hyphenation for ConsistencyIn the “Monitoring and Verification” section (lines 107–110), the bullet point reads:
"Machine identity based authentication"
This expression is typically hyphenated. Consider changing it to:
"Machine-identity-based authentication"
to ensure consistency with standard usage.🧰 Tools
