The CYBR-SUITE (CYSU), CORE DESIGN v. 0.9.5
(dockerized Version, Apache/2.4.25 Debian, PHP/7.2.19, MariaDB/10.4)
FAST START (requires a DOCKER / DOCKER-COMPOSE on your LINUX system being up and ready):
docker-compose --version
==> 1.17.1 |
docker --version
==> 19.03.4
FAST START part 1)
download:
(here: latest version is 0.9.5 - replace if you need/want to...)
wget https://sourceforge.net/projects/cybr/files/cysu_0.9.5.zipIt seems, there is a bug or sth - via /latest - so you better use the above command ...
the old version was: wget https://sourceforge.net/projects/cybr/files/latest/download
unzip:
since the downloaded folder is not download.zip now anymore, use the following for unzip:
python3 -m zipfile -e cysu_0.9.5.zip myCysuDir/the old version was: python3 -m zipfile -e download cysu/
modify generator for your SSL-certificate:
ensure you navigate into the correct directory e.g. within the myCysuDir/ ...
cd cysu/cysu_0.9.5/core/
This is the blueprint for letting the server create a SSL certificate.
Exchange ONLY the parts after the "=", which are: town, state, country, organization
[ctrl]+[x] -> [y] to exit & save
build:
FAST START part 2)
create the database-tables:
If you do not use the python3 setuptest** for making the automated setup,
you need to trigger the database-tables' creation-scripts via your internet-browser manually by opening:

/how2-start-working.md (if you manage to execute the setuptest, the steps for the setting-up will be performed automatically. The setuptest is available as an extra project:
Requirements & url for the setuptest:

(You need to modify the Conf/test_configVars.py BEFORE you make the
python3 setup.py install --user)ABOUT the CYBR-SUITE (CYSU)
The CYBR-SUITE (CYSU) is a complete project communication & collaboration solution with multi-project-capabilities.
It's a great supplementation for Oracle's Primavera and a real alternative to the Atlassian Products Confluence and Jira for collaborative task-management in combination with a fallback "solution" like Slack for covering the project-communication.
The CYSU offers you a SCRUM solution with discussion-threads under each task.
This means: the tasks on the SCRUM-Board are not just "Post-It notes" - but do have an underlying discussion-thread.
Within this discussion-thread, you can start traditionally with a User-Story - and add the requirements or start a discussion about the requirements and develop a version controled task requirements document (TRD) by adding a TRD-template as an attachment, work it off in a collaborative approach and produce a portfolio of TRDs for reusability of recurring tasks -> and make them available for the whole organization to improve productivity & quality.
You can add attachments to your posts or integrate images within your message,
You can add hyperlinks - for example you can link together your posting with your Confluence wiki pages or SharePoint pages or your SAP's cProject or ORACLE's Primavera P6 WBS-Elements or Activities and keep it all securely located on yopur own servers...
... connect planning-data, project-documentation & communication in both directions: you can simply add hyperlinks from your existing web-solutions like Confluence, SharePoint, Primavera or cProject for linking the contents & tasks to their associated discussion-threads within the CYSU as well, of course.
This is bringing together the resource-planning with the collaboration-, communication- & coordination-doing of your Project.
The CYSU has a Work-Breakdown-Structure (WBS) design
and is bringing together SCRUM with STRUCTURE.
Yes: If you start to manage the communication of your projects with the help of the CYBR-SUITE,
your options to assign work with workers are not bound to your actual location any more.
From now on you do have access to all internal and external available workers world-wide...
You do have a shortage of specialists?
A bottle-neck simply because of manpower? - or a task for which you do need a very special knowledge within a certain field?
The sooner you start taking advantage of global staffing and digital communication,
the better you are in building-up locally distributed teams and cybernetic collaboration networks.
Documented, reliable and reusable communication
the MISSING LINK between planning & collaborative doing.
All communication is now available as data.
This is the source of the next level: An Artificial Intelligence supported Digital Workspace.
Based on our world-innovation for superior communication, the CFLX Clarity Statements, the machine is now capable of understanding human communication:
The CFLX Clarity Statements innovation is the only solution worldwide that enables to and insists on the transmission of the relationship-part of the message.
Based on the "2nd Axiom of Communication" (P. Watzlawick) and the "Communication-Square" (F. Schulz von Thun) the CLFX do replace the "Interpretation-Gap between the lines" with clear statements.
As a fortunate side-effect, the CYSU delivers well-structured communication-data today for the ai-solutions of tomorrow.
Data is the new oil - and the CYSU is probably the best solution for producing high quality data from your greatest source: the communication of your employees.
**Stop wasting it - start to use it! **
==> This application is a real cloud solution,
it needs to be deployed on your own server!
THE VERY DETAILED STEP-BY-STEP INSTALLATION-GUIDE
These very detailed instructions will get you a copy of the CYBR-SUITE (CYSU) up and running on your own server.
We assume, you are starting from complete zero here - so we guide you through the steps starting from purchasing a VPS (Virtual Private Server)
Intro
Basically, the CYBR-SUITE is a web-application running on a LAMP (Linux Apache MySql PHP) - and there are many ways to meet these requirements...
However, in this README we only describe the way via docker & docker-compose using the Linux kernel of the Ubuntu we are going to select to be the base-operation-system of our VPS (Virtual Private Server).
Requirements
A Linux server with docker & docker-compose:
Not every VPS provider enables you to run docker.
If you need a cheap one, starting with 3,00 EUR for one single month payable with PayPal,
then just click the link below (the affiliate code will reduce the costs of my own servers running there and ensures you a VPS for which the available step-by-step documentation was made for):
You need an E-Mail-address with PGP-encryption
(you need the public PGP-key for this E-Mail). You can get a secure and free one via:
You need a SendGrid API-Key
for sending out E-Mails
(transactional E-Mails, eg for password-resets as well as for sending PGP-encrypted, CFLX-enhanced & WBS-assigned E-Mails out of the CYSU as well).
Get a FREE acount (no Credit-Card needed) via:
login, create an API-Key; copy and securely store the key (a longer line, starts with SG_)
(Info: if you activate/verify the account, you'll get 200 free E-Mails per day instead of 100.)
A domain to be set as rDNS is needed for sending emails via SMTP.
You can use yopur organization's one - or try it with a free one from:
(at MVPS: **SMTP is disabled for IPv6 addresses. For IPv4, SMTP connections require a valid rDNS.)
Get & prepare your VPS (tested well for "our" Provider MVPS):
(Note: if you do not need a server, you can jump to the headline "Install docker & the CYBR-SUITE on your Linux machine")
Simply follow the steps and:
1. Get your VPS (with Ubuntu 20) & have the received password AND the IP of your server available:
https://www.mvps.net/?aff=6517
2. Prepare your SSH on YOUR LOCAL machine:
if you do have installed the Ubuntu & you do have received the email with your credentials,
you can create the ssh-access to prepare the server via that ssh-tunnel & deploy the CYBR-SUITE on your server remotely.
generate the keys:
Info: these steps might slighly differ if you are using a Mac or even Windows locally - check the tutorials / how-2s for your machine then.
SSH secure shell: generate keys for getting a secure tunnel to the VPS:
** On your local Linux Terminal / Console / bash / Shell (I do use Ubuntu locally as well) simply type:**
enter file in which to save the rsa key pair (exchange your ubuntu $user name, of course):
==> You will be asked for a creative password => write it down! ("Your-Creative_&_Written-Down-Password!")
response will look like:
Your identification has been saved in /home/flori/.ssh/mvpskeypair
Your public key has been saved in /home/flori/.ssh/mvpskeypair.pub
The key fingerprint is:
SHA256:mZ3RmtU1m11nO5Cj4M/W3VQstQVqBDE+WRIzuw7jbfI flori@themachine
4. Now, copy the public key to the Server (MVPS) - use YOUR filename of the key and your MVPS-IP, of course:
ssh-copy-id -i .ssh/mvpskeypair.pub root@45.137.148.202ssh-copy-id -i mvpskeys.pub root@45.137.148.202note: at this point there might appear an error-message. It's meaningless. Just enter the password the system is asking for and proceed.
=> enter the MVPS-Password from the email - or get the MVPS_Password via their Control Panel, eg via:
https://www.mvps.net/service?id=12345
<with your="" id,="" of="" course="">
-> look at OTHER DETAILS, there you'll find a Password.</with>
(a general info: on a Linux terminal you can copy-paste with [Ctrl]+[Shift]+[V])
The result in your terminal will look like:
root@45.137.148.202's password:
Number of key(s) added: 1
*Now try logging into the machine, with: *
ssh 'root@45.137.148.202'
and check to make sure that only the key(s) you wanted were added.
NOW, WE CAN LOGIN FROM THE LOCAL TERMINAL INTO THE TERMINAL OF THE SERVER with:
ssh -i .ssh/mvpskeypair root@45.137.148.202enter YOUR password ("Your-Creative_&_Written-Down-Password!")
=> You should be logged into your VPS Ubuntu now!
root@ubuntu:~
Stay in the terminal connected with your server as root and follow the instructions below - it is the same as instaling locally now:
=====================================================================================
Install docker & the CYBR-SUITE on your Linux machine
(We did not add a kernel, so docker/docker-compose expects a Linux kernel on the host machine it can use.):
prepare / update Ubuntu (modify accordingly for other Linux ditributions):
sudo apt-get update |sudo apt-get upgradeinstall docker CE & docker-compose on Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https |sudo apt-get ca-certificates |sudo apt-get nano |sudo apt-get curl |sudo apt-get software-properties-commoncurl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add -sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable"sudo apt update |sudo apt install docker-ce |apt install docker-composedocker -vsystemctl enable docker
usermod -a -G docker YOUR_USERNAME
systemctl start docker
Start with the CYSU:
download the CYSU from sourceforge:
it seems not to work this way anymore - better set the direct target, not the /latest endpoint
wget https://sourceforge.net/projects/cybr/files/cysu_0.9.5.zipand then unzip:
python3 -m zipfile -e cysu_0.9.5.zip myCysuDir/** open the SSL-cert generator skript-file and change the settings to your needs:**
cd cysu.../cysu.../core/// might differ, use correct dir eg with myCysuDir/cysu095/ ...nano x509generator.shThis is the blueprint for letting the server create a SSL certificate: exchange ONLY the parts after the "=", town, state, country, organization
[ctrl]+[x] -> [y] to exit & save
** set the correct permission to a .sh skript file (needed to set the permissions of the upload-folders for the attachments, called within the docker-compose.yml):**
cd init-scripts/chmod +x cdata-chown-script.sh** navigate to the folder wwich contains the docker-compose.yml file:**
cd ../../make the build:
docker-compose up --buildIf you do not use the python3 CYSU-setuptest(see below) for making the automated setup,
you need to trigger the database-tables creation-scripts with your internet-browser via:
https://[IP or domain]/zubringer/createMetaDBTables.phphttps://[IP or domain]/1/zubringer/createProjectDBTables.phphttps://[IP or domain]/2/zubringer/createProjectDBTables.phphttps://[IP or domain]/3/zubringer/createProjectDBTables.phphttps://[IP or domain]/4/zubringer/createProjectDBTables.phphttps://[IP or domain]/5/zubringer/createProjectDBTables.phpAfter that, you can make a user-registration via the pencil-icon at:
