# DigitalOcean Spaces Security Integration | Continuous FIM, DSPM & Ransomware Defense · tamper

> Secure your DigitalOcean Spaces buckets with continuous File Integrity Monitoring (FIM), DSPM posture auditing, and early ransomware detection via native S3 API.

## Prevent Public Leaks & Ransomware on DigitalOcean Spaces.

DigitalOcean Spaces makes cloud storage effortless for SaaS and e-commerce teams—until a misconfigured ACL or leaked Spaces key exposes customer files. tamper secures your Spaces (`fra1`, `ams3`, `nyc3`) in under 2 minutes.

## Why secure DigitalOcean Spaces storage with tamper?

Fast-shipping engineering teams rely on DigitalOcean Spaces for user uploads, CDN origins, and database backups. tamper provides enterprise-grade FIM, DSPM, and DLP starting at €30/month—without slowing down developers.

- **Continuous DSPM Posture & ACL Auditing** (01 / STOP BUCKET & CDN LEAKS): Catch accidentally public Spaces buckets, permissive CORS rules, and unencrypted customer uploads across Frankfurt (fra1) and Amsterdam (ams3).
- **Detect Web Defacement & Malware Injection** (02 / PROTECT CDN ORIGINS & UPLOADS): Monitor SHA-256 file hashes and IoC signatures across your Spaces CDN origin buckets to immediately spot trojanized binaries or altered JS/media assets.
- **Enterprise S3 Security Starting at €30/Month** (03 / STARTUP-FRIENDLY PRICING): Deploy the Genesis or Monolith plan in minutes with a 30-day free trial—no complex enterprise sales cycle or heavy SIEM required.

## Connect DigitalOcean Spaces in under 2 minutes

tamper connects natively via standard DigitalOcean Spaces read-only S3 API credentials with zero disruption to your existing workflows.

- **Provider**: `DigitalOcean` (Pre-configured cloud storage connector)
- **Endpoint**: `fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com` (e.g., fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com, ams3.digitaloceanspaces.com, nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com)
- **Region**: `fra1` (DigitalOcean Spaces datacenter region (fra1, ams3, nyc3))
- **Bucket Name**: `my-digitalocean-bucket` (Target private DigitalOcean Spaces bucket)
- **S3 Access Key & Secret**: `DO00... / ...` (Read-Only S3 API credentials)

> Principle of Least Privilege: tamper strictly operates in Read-Only mode on DigitalOcean Spaces. tamper never requests write or delete privileges on your production objects.

## Comprehensive Security Posture Across DigitalOcean Spaces

- **FIM (File Integrity Monitoring) - Cryptographic Object Fingerprinting**: Tracks SHA-256 baselines across all DigitalOcean Spaces objects, identifying unauthorized modifications and silent corruption.
- **DSPM (Data Security Posture Management) - Bucket Configuration & Access Controls**: Continuously audits DigitalOcean Spaces bucket visibility, encryption settings, Object Lock, Versioning, and lifecycle rules against CIS security benchmarks.
- **DAM (Data Access Monitoring) - Access Anomaly & S3 Gateway Protection**: Monitors data access patterns and supports optional inline protection via the tamper S3 Gateway for real-time request filtering and anti-wiper quotas.
- **DLP (Data Loss Prevention & Ransomware Guard) - Entropy Qualification, AI Tagging & Canaries**: Detects encryption spikes (~7.99 Shannon entropy), qualifies document alterations with local AI, and monitors stealth canary objects.

## Technical Architecture: Native S3 API Compatibility with DigitalOcean Spaces

tamper communicates with DigitalOcean Spaces over standard HTTPS S3 endpoints (fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com) using AWS Signature Version 4 (SigV4).

- **1. Standard S3 SigV4 Protocol**: Full interoperability with your existing DigitalOcean Spaces pipelines, backup tools (Veeam, rclone, restic), and cloud-native applications.
- **2. 100% Agentless Operation**: Audits run externally on your dedicated VM or tamper appliance without deploying any software inside your compute instances.
- **3. Strict Read-Only Boundary**: Non-destructive cryptographic inspection ensures your object payloads, custom metadata, and version histories are never altered.
