## 🔒 Security

### Key Security Features
- **Local-Only**: No network access or external dependencies
- **Minimal Permissions**: Only accesses explicitly specified directories
- **Zero Dependencies**: Reduces attack surface and potential vulnerabilities
- **Memory Protection**: Secure handling of sensitive data in memory
- **Secure Defaults**: All security features enabled by default

### Security Architecture

#### Data Protection
- **Encryption**: AES-256-GCM with PBKDF2 key derivation
- **Secure Storage**: Configuration files stored with restricted permissions (600 for files, 700 for directories)
- **Memory Safety**: Sensitive data is zeroed out after use
- **Input Validation**: All user inputs are strictly validated and sanitized

#### Access Control
- **Admin PIN**: Required for sensitive operations
- **Session Management**: Automatic timeout after 15 minutes of inactivity
- **Rate Limiting**: Protection against brute force attacks
- **Path Validation**: Prevents directory traversal attacks

### Security Configuration

Customize security settings in `security-config.json`:

```json
{
  "pin": {
    "minLength": 4,
    "maxLength": 32,
    "requireStrongPin": true,
    "maxAttempts": 5,
    "lockDuration": 900000,
    "sessionTimeout": 900000
  },
  "encryption": {
    "enabled": true,
    "algorithm": "aes-256-gcm",
    "keyDerivation": {
      "iterations": 100000,
      "digest": "sha512"
    }
  },
  "filePermissions": {
    "files": 384,    // 600 in octal
    "directories": 448 // 700 in octal
  }
}
```

### Security Best Practices

1. **Regular Updates**
   - Keep i18ntk updated to the latest version

   - Restrict access to configuration files
   - Use strong, unique PINs

3. **Monitoring**
   - Review security logs regularly
   - Monitor for unusual activity
   - Report any security concerns immediately

4. **Backup & Recovery**
   - Maintain regular backups
   - Store backups securely
   - Test restore procedures

### Exit Codes

| Code | Meaning | Description |
|------|---------|-------------|
| 0    | Success | Operation completed successfully |
| 1    | Configuration error | Invalid or missing configuration |
| 2    | Validation failed | Input validation error |
| 3    | Security violation | Authentication or authorization failure |
| 4    | Resource error | File system or resource access issue |
| 5    | Runtime error | Unexpected error during execution |

  language: 'en',        // default language
});

// Use anywhere in your app
function Welcome() {
  return (
    <div>
      <h1>{t('welcome.title')}</h1>

# Create backup with custom name
i18ntk backup create --name my-backup

# List all available backups
i18ntk backup list

# Show detailed info about a backup
i18ntk backup info <backup-id>

# Restore from a specific backup
i18ntk backup restore <backup-id>

# Verify backup integrity
i18ntk backup verify <backup-id>

# Remove old backups (keeps last 5 by default)
i18ntk backup cleanup [--keep=5]
```

### Backup Features

- **Incremental Backups**: Only stores changed files
- **Compression**: Reduces storage space usage
- **Encryption**: Optional encryption for sensitive data
- **Metadata**: Includes version and timestamp information

### Backup Configuration

Configure backup settings in `backup-config.json`:

```json
{
  "backup": {
    "directory": "./i18n-backups",
    "retention": {
      "maxBackups": 10,
      "maxAgeDays": 30
    },
    "compression": {
      "enabled": true,
      "level": 6
    },
    "encryption": {
      "enabled": true,
      "algorithm": "aes-256-gcm"
    },
    "include": [
      "locales/**/*.json",
      "i18n.config.json"
    ],
    "exclude": [
      "**/node_modules/**",
      "**/.*"
    ]
  }
}
```

### Automatic Backups

Enable automatic backups in your project configuration:

```json
{
  "autoBackup": {
    "enabled": true,
    "frequency": "daily",
    "time": "02:00",
    "maxBackups": 7
  }
}
```

### Restoring from Backup

1. List available backups:
   ```bash
   i18ntk backup list
   ```

2. Verify backup contents:
   ```bash
   i18ntk backup info <backup-id>
   ```

3. Restore backup:
   ```bash
   i18ntk backup restore <backup-id>
   ```

4. Verify restoration:
   ```bash
   i18ntk validate
   ```

### Best Practices

- **Regular Backups**: Set up automatic daily backups
- **Offsite Storage**: Copy backups to a secure, offsite location
- **Test Restores**: Periodically verify backup integrity
- **Retention Policy**: Keep at least 7 days of backups
- **Monitor Space**: Ensure sufficient disk space for backups
