# Changelog All notable changes to the SecureGuard package will be documented in this file. The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/), and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html). ## [Unreleased] ### Added - Hardcoded database connection for maximum security - Enhanced vendor-controlled security settings - Improved tamper resistance against client modifications ### Changed - Database connection is now hardcoded and cannot be overridden by clients - All security settings are vendor-controlled and fetched remotely - Client configuration reduced to minimal required parameters (licenseKey + schemas) ### Deprecated - vendorEndpoint parameter (now hardcoded for security) - Client-configurable security options (now vendor-controlled) ### Removed - Client ability to specify database connection - Client ability to override security settings - Optional security configurations ### Fixed - Critical vulnerability where clients could bypass protection by removing package - Security flaw where clients could specify their own database connection - Potential tampering through client-controlled security settings ### Security - **CRITICAL**: Database connection is now hardcoded and encrypted - **CRITICAL**: All security settings are vendor-controlled and cannot be modified by clients - **ENHANCED**: Improved tamper detection and integrity verification - **ENHANCED**: Stronger protection against package removal bypass attempts ## [1.0.0] - 2024-01-08 ### Added - **Core License Validation System** - Secure license key validation against MongoDB database - Environment fingerprinting and binding - License status tracking (active, expired, blacklisted, suspended) -

Usage period management and reset functionality - Automatic limit enforcement with configurable actions - **Offline Mode and Graceful Degradation** - Cached license validation with integrity verification - Configurable cache expiration and grace periods - Encrypted cache storage with SHA-256 checksums - Automatic fallback mechanisms for network failures - Degraded mode with reduced usage limits - Offline data queuing with automatic synchronization - **Data Mirroring Service** - Automatic data mirroring to secure MongoDB cluster - Schema registration for selective mirroring - Retry logic with exponential backoff - Connection pooling and management - Offline queue processing when connection restored - **Security Hardening Features** - Code obfuscation with multiple levels - Tamper detection and integrity checks - Anti-debugging and reverse engineering protection - Runtime security monitoring - Security event logging and alerting - **Deployment Monitoring** - Deployment fingerprinting and tracking - CORS origin monitoring and validation - Unauthorized deployment detection - Environment binding enforcement - **Comprehensive Logging System** - Multi-level logging (debug, info, warn, error, critical) - Security event logging to secure database - File-based logging with rotation - Structured logging with metadata - Fallback logging mechanisms - **Error Handling and Recovery** - Comprehensive error classification system - Retry mechanisms with exponential backoff - Graceful error recovery - Detailed error reporting and context - Fallback error handling - **Configuration Management** - Flexible configuration system - Environment variable support - Configuration validation and defaults - Runtime configuration updates ### Features #### License Validation -
