JFrog Registry Operator

Setting up JFrog’s AssumeRole Capabilities in AWS

Follow the official documentation for detailed instructions on detailed information and AWS configuration required to run the JFrog Registry Operator.

The integration of AWS Assume Role and JFrog Access presents a powerful solution that enables AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) users to temporarily assume permissions to perform actions in a secure and controlled manner. The solution enhances Kubernetes Secrets Management by automating token rotation, enhancing access controls, and seamlessly integrating JFrog Artifactory into the AWS environment

AssumeRole JFrog Architecture & Deployment

The following diagram shows the basic architecture of how AssumeRole integrates with JFrog Access to provide enhanced access control:

If you are interested in making the move from vulnerable manual secret handling to secure automated secret management, then your journey towards a more secure and seamless containerized future begins here. See how quickly this powerful capability can be deployed by checking out our step-by-step installation and configuration guide.

Install operator using helm chart - Ignore if you already installed using Setting up JFrog’s AssumeRole Capabilities in AWS

# Get the latest [Helm release](https://github.com/helm/helm#install) Note: (only V3 is supported)
# before installing JFrog helm charts, you need to add the [JFrog helm repository](https://charts.jfrog.io) to your helm client.
helm repo add jfrog https://charts.jfrog.io

# update the helm repo
helm repo update

# decide on the namespace and kubernetes service account name you will want to create
export SERVICE_ACCOUNT_NAME="<service account name>"
export ANNOTATIONS="<Role annotation for service account>" # Example: eks.amazonaws.com/role-arn: arn:aws:iam::000000000000:role/jfrog-operator-role
export NAMESPACE="jfrog-operator"

# install JFrog secret rotator operator
helm upgrade --install secretrotator jfrog/jfrog-registry-operator --set "serviceAccount.name=${SERVICE_ACCOUNT_NAME}" --set serviceAccount.annotations=${ANNOTATIONS}  --namespace  ${NAMESPACE} --create-namespace

Once operator is in running state, configure artifactoryUrl, refreshTime, namespaceSelector, and secretMetadata in secretrotator.yaml

Sample Manifest:

apiVersion: apps.jfrog.com/v1alpha1
kind: SecretRotator
metadata:
  labels:
    app.kubernetes.io/name: secretrotators.apps.jfrog.com
    app.kubernetes.io/instance: secretrotator
    app.kubernetes.io/created-by: artifactory-secrets-rotator
  name: secretrotator
spec:
  namespaceSelector:
    matchLabels:
      kubernetes.io/metadata.name: jfrog-operator
  secretName: token-secret
  artifactoryUrl: ""
  refreshTime: 30m
  secretMetadata:
    annotations:
      annotationKey: annotationValue
    labels:
      labelName: labelValue
  security:
    enabled: false
    secretNamespace:
    ## NOTE: You can provide either a ca.pem or ca.crt. But make sure that key needs to same as ca.crt or ca.pem in secret
    certificateSecretName:
    insecureSkipVerify: false

Apply the secretrotator mainfest:

kubectl apply -f /charts/jfrog-registry-operator/examples/secretrotator.yaml -n ${NAMESPACE}

Uninstalling JFrog Secret Rotator operator

# Uninstall the secretrotator using the following command
helm uninstall secretrotator -n ${NAMESPACE}

# Uninstall the secretrotator object (path should be pointing to the secretrotator.yaml)
kubectl delete -f secretrotator.yaml -n ${NAMESPACE}

# Remove the CRD from the cluster
kubectl delete crd secretrotators.apps.jfrog.com

Check Resources in your cluster

# For secrets in your namespace
kubectl get secrets -n ${NAMESPACE}

# For operator pod in your namespace
kubectl get po -n ${NAMESPACE}

# For SecretRotator
kubectl get SecretRotator
