More Questions From Customers About SQL Server Transparent Data Encryption – TDE + Azure Key Vault

  • [アーティクル]

Recently many customers have been moving from AIX and HPUX to Windows 2016 & SQL Server 2016 running on Azure as these UNIX platforms are no longer mainstream, developed or invested by their vendors

Most of these customers are deploying TDE to protect the Database files and backups. Encrypting databases with strong ciphers like AES-256 is a highly effective way to prevent theft of data, consequently great care must be taken with the keys. If there is a DR event or some need to restore the database and the keys cannot be found the database is for all purposes lost. It is not possible to unencrypt AES-256 by "brute force" methods.

To prevent this from happening we recommend leveraging the Azure Key Vault to securely store the SQL Server TDE keys

Many readers of this blog and customers have asked for an end to end process for a new SAP installation or migration on SQL 2016 on Azure with AlwaysOn with TDE using the Azure Key Vault.

Before reviewing the rest of this blog topic it is recommended to fully review this link https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/mt720686.aspx

Note: Using SQL Server TDE & storing SQL datafiles on Bitlocker or Azure ADE disks is not tested and is not recommended due to performance concerns

Prerequisites:

1. Segregate duties between the DBA and the Azure Key Manager. The DBA should not have access to the Azure Key Vault and the Key Administrator should not have access to SQL Server databases and backups

2. Ensure Azure Active Directory has been setup (most commonly this is integrated with on-premises Active Directory)

3. Ask the Key Administrator to assist with the Key Vault steps

4. Download the Azure Key Vault Integration

Before proceeding it is essential to read this documentation and understand the following process flow. More information is here

Implementation:

5. Register the SQL Server Application in Azure Active Directory

Open the ASM portal https://manage.windowsazure.com and navigate to the "Active Directory" service

Click on the Directory Service (either the default directory or if configured the integrated directory). Then click on "Applications"

The values in the URL/URI can be any value so long as the site is available

After creating the Azure Active Directory Application, click on the configure tab and note the Client ID and the Client Secret

Note: Some documentation and the PowerShell scripts refer to the "Client ID" as the "ServicePrincipalName". In this procedure they are the same. A potential source of confusion.

Create the Secret with either 1 or 2 years duration under the "keys" section of the Configuration Tab of the Applications menu in Azure Active Directory

6. Create the vault, master key and authorize SQL Server to access the Key

Grant the Client ID (ServicePrincipalName) permissions to get, list, wrapKey and unwrapKey on the Key Vault that already exists or has just been created

Set-AzureRmKeyVaultAccessPolicy
-VaultName
'SAPKeyVault'
-ServicePrincipalName
2db602bd-4a4b-xxxx-xxxx-d128c143c8a9
-PermissionsToKeys
get, list, wrapKey, unwrapKey

Check permissions on the Key Vault with the following command. The application registered in Azure Active Directory can be seen highlighted below

Get-AzureRmKeyVault -VaultName 'SAPKeyVault'

Create the Key with the following command:

Add-AzureKeyVaultKey
-VaultName
'SAPKeyVault'
-Name
'SAPonSQLTDEKey'
-Destination
'Software'

Alternatively a Key can be created via the Azure Portal as shown below

7. Create the database in advance in SQL Management Studio. Make the database size at creation large enough for the installation or import plus enough for a few months growth. Provided the database is created with the DB name = <SID> SAPInst will recognize this as the installation target database.

8. Set the database recovery model to SIMPLE

9. Enable TDE with this command

-- Enable advanced options.

USE
master;

GO

sp_configure
'show advanced options', 1 ;

GO

RECONFIGURE
;

GO

-- Enable EKM provider

sp_configure
'EKM provider enabled', 1 ;

GO

RECONFIGURE
;

GO

-- Create a cryptographic provider, using the SQL Server Connector

-- which is an EKM provider for the Azure Key Vault. This example uses

-- the name AzureKeyVault_EKM_Prov.

On all releases of SQL Server it is still required to download and install the SQL Server Connector for Microsoft Azure Key Vault.

After Installation of the connector run this command.

CREATE
CRYPTOGRAPHIC
PROVIDER AzureKeyVault_EKM_Prov

FROM
FILE
=
'C:\Program Files\SQL Server Connector for Microsoft Azure Key Vault\Microsoft.AzureKeyVaultService.EKM.dll';

GO

The next part is quite difficult. The Secret in this command is = Client ID (referenced as the ServicePrincipalName) with the hyphens removed + the Secret from the Azure Active Directory Application

Example:

Azure Active Directory Application Client ID = 2db602bd-4x4x-4322-8xxf-d128c143c8a9

Azure Active Directory Application Secret = FZCzXY3K8RpZoK12MxF/WFxxAw6aOxxPU2ixxEkQBbc=

Step A: remove the hyphens 2db602bd-4x4x-4322-8xxf-d128c143c8a9 -> 2db602bd4x4x43228xxfd128c143c8a9

Step B: concatenate Client ID (minus hyphens) and Secret = 2db602bd4x4x43228xxfd128c143c8a9FZCzXY3K8RpZoK12MxF/WFxxAw6aOxxPU2ixxEkQBbc=

SELECT d.name, dek.encryption_state

FROM
sys.dm_database_encryption_keys
AS dek

JOIN
sys.databases
AS d

ON dek.database_id = d.database_id;

11. Only when the ENCRYPTION STATUS = 3 continue this procedure

Even a blank database with no data will take some time to encrypt. The reason is that "nothing" is encrypted using a symmetric key and the original "nothing" or null value is represented by a completely random value. All of the above steps can be done prior to a SAP OS/DB migration and therefore these steps do not increase downtime

12. Run SWPM to install or migrate the SAP NetWeaver system

13. Complete post processing as per the SAP System Copy Guide

14. Set the SQL Server database recovery model to FULL

15. Start a full database backup

16. Copy the database backup file to a location where AlwaysOn Replica #1 can restore the file

17. Run the commands from step 9 up and including the step "ALTER LOGIN TDE_Login" step in this procedure to install the TDE Key on Replica #1 [Repeat on each AlwaysOn Replica node]

18. Restore the database on AlwaysOn Replica #1

19. Configure the Azure Internal Load Balancer - ILB if this has not already been done in advance (ensure Direct Server Return is enabled)

20. The AlwaysOn Availability Group Wizard will not work with TDE databases. It is not possible to use the wizard to setup AlwaysOn

These two blogs discuss how to setup AlwaysOn on TDE databases

In these blogs ignore the Key Management procedures as in this scenario Keys are stored in Azure and not locally. The T-SQL to create the AlwaysOn Availability Group is the same

https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/alwaysonpro/2015/01/07/how-to-add-a-tde-encrypted-database-to-an-availability-group/

https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/sqlserverfaq/2013/11/22/how-to-configure-always-on-for-a-tde-database/

21. Test failover by running the Failover wizard in SSMS

22. Run the step listed in topic #9 in this blog to create users on the new Replica Node (SAPInst would have already performed this activity as part of the install or migration on the Primary Node)

23. Check access to the database with a simple query SELECT * FROM <sid>.T000;

24. Change the default.pfl value for dbs/mss/server = <primary node hostname> to dbs/mss/sqlserver = <alwayson listener name> (for Java systems use ConfigTool)

25. Start the SAP application servers and run SICK

26. Run the Always On failover wizard again to test failover and failback.

Note: Azure Key Vault integration for SQL Server TDE requires these hosts and ports to be whitelisted
