note: 'Derived mechanically first with 0-working/derive-authentication.py, which found no OpenAPI
  securitySchemes because Bitfury publishes no OpenAPI for Exonum. The profile below is read from the
  published Exonum documentation and source, and describes the framework''s actual authorization model
  rather than an HTTP securityScheme list.'

schemes:
- name: ed25519-transaction-signature
  type: signature
  algorithm: Ed25519
  applies_to: write operations (transactions submitted over REST or WebSocket)
  description: 'Transactions are authenticated by an Ed25519 digital signature carried in the JSON
    serialization of the transaction, not by an HTTP credential. The caller is identified by the
    transaction author''s public key, by a calling service instance ID, or by the blockchain itself
    (see exonum.runtime.Caller in grpc/bitfury-group-exonum-runtime-auth.proto).'
  source: grpc/bitfury-group-exonum-runtime-auth.proto
- name: unauthenticated-public-read
  type: none
  applies_to: read operations on the public HTTP server
  description: 'GET endpoints defined by services on the public HTTP server are generally not
    authenticated. Integrity is provided by Merkle proofs rather than by access control: a light client
    can verify that a response was authorized by a supermajority of validators.'
- name: private-http-server
  type: network-partition
  applies_to: administrative operations (system API plugin, supervisor private endpoints)
  description: 'The Rust runtime runs two HTTP servers, public and private, with separate endpoint sets
    and separate ports. Privileged operations - node info/stats/peers/consensus status/shutdown, artifact
    deployment, config proposals - are only wired onto the private server, which the operator is expected
    to keep off the public network. There is no token or key scheme on these endpoints; access control is
    the deployment''s responsibility.'
- name: noise-protocol-p2p
  type: transport-encryption
  applies_to: full-node to full-node connections
  description: All peer-to-peer connections between full nodes are encrypted with the Noise Protocol, and
    every full node is authenticated with public-key cryptography.
gaps:
- No OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, API key or bearer-token scheme exists anywhere in the Exonum HTTP surface.
- Authorization of the private HTTP server is delegated entirely to network placement, so an operator who
  exposes it inherits an unauthenticated administrative API.
