Solution · Database security Vulnerability intelligence coming soon in Gluesync Connect # Strengthen security across connected databases Protect data movement with encryption and role-based access today, while preparing for centralized vulnerability posture and patch intelligence in Gluesync Connect. [Explore database security](#how-it-works) [Talk to our team](/contacts/?topic=data-architecture) 1. 01 Encrypt communications and data 2. 02 Apply role-aware access 3. 03 Centralize security posture The challenge ## Security context is scattered across the estate Database versions, access controls, certificates, and vendor advisories live in separate systems that are difficult to assess together. 01 / Exposure ### Known risks remain undiscovered Teams can miss vulnerable versions and unsafe configurations when inventory and advisory data are disconnected. 02 / Access ### Privileges spread across tools Separate clients and automation credentials make least-privilege access harder to enforce and audit. 03 / Transport ### Hybrid paths expand the boundary Data moving between sites, Core Hub, and targets needs consistent encryption and certificate management. How it works ## Secure the path, govern access, improve posture Gluesync secures distributed data operations now; Connect is designed to add consolidated vulnerability and patch awareness. 1. 01 Protect ### Encrypt communications and data Use TLS for external connections and encrypted node-to-node communication across the Gluesync topology. 2. 02 Control ### Apply role-aware access Manage users and permissions centrally, with scoped PATs for federated query access. 3. 03 Assess ### Centralize security posture Upcoming Connect capabilities will correlate connected database inventory with vulnerability and patch intelligence. Gluesync capabilities ## Security controls today, posture intelligence next The distinction matters: encryption and RBAC are documented Gluesync features; vulnerability scans and patch alerts are coming soon. 01 ### Encrypted data movement Secure service and database communication across hybrid Gluesync deployments. - TLS-secured connections - Private CA trust stores - Licensed encrypted node communication [Secure database communications](https://docs.molo17.com/gluesync/latest/security/secure-database-service-comunication.html) 02 ### Users, roles, and identity Apply Core Hub roles and integrate external identity providers for centrally governed access. - SUPER ADMIN, MANAGER, and VIEWER roles - OIDC group mapping - Permission-aware APIs [User management and RBAC](https://docs.molo17.com/gluesync/latest/security/user-management-rbac.html) 03 ### Vulnerability and patch posture Planned Connect capabilities will surface database exposure, known CVEs, and relevant patch information. - Vulnerability scorecards - CVE matching - Patch and end-of-life alerts [Explore Connect →](/connect/) Related solutions ## Continue exploring Gluesync use cases [ Solution · Database health ### DB performance advisor Bring fleet-wide health, slowness detection, and human-approved remedies into the Gluesync operational workflow.
