Pull request description:
## Overview
This PR implements a comprehensive Docker/UFW firewall security strategy to address the critical security issue where Docker bypasses UFW firewall rules.
## Problem
Docker manipulates iptables directly, bypassing UFW rules for published container ports. This means services like MySQL and Prometheus can be accidentally exposed publicly even when UFW rules deny access.
## Solution
Implemented a **layered security approach** combining:
1. **Instance-Level Security (UFW)** - Protects SSH access only
2. **Service-Level Security (Docker)** - Controls service exposure via port bindings
3. **Network Segmentation** - Three isolated Docker networks for defense-in-depth
## Key Changes
### Phase 3.1: UFW Cleanup ✅
- Removed obsolete UFW tracker firewall configuration
- Updated base firewall to only manage SSH access
- Added comments explaining Docker bypasses UFW
### Phase 3.2: Network Segmentation ✅
- Implemented three-network architecture:
- `database_network`: Tracker ↔ MySQL only
- `metrics_network`: Tracker ↔ Prometheus only
- `visualization_network`: Prometheus ↔ Grafana only
- Updated docker-compose template with network segmentation
- Added comprehensive security comments
### Phase 3.2: Manual E2E Testing ✅
- All positive tests passed: Tracker→MySQL, Prometheus→Tracker, Grafana→Prometheus
- All negative tests passed: Grafana/Prometheus blocked from MySQL
- Test results documented in `docs/issues/manual-tests/248-network-segmentation-test-results.md`
### Phase 5: Documentation ✅
- Updated `docs/user-guide/security.md` with correct Docker/UFW architecture
- Documented service exposure strategy (Public/Localhost/Internal)
- Added security best practices and warnings
## Security Impact
✅ **66% reduction in MySQL attack surface** (3 services → 1 service)
✅ Network isolation prevents lateral movement
✅ Production-ready implementation validated
✅ All manual E2E tests passed
## Testing
- ✅ All unit tests pass
- ✅ All E2E tests pass (infrastructure lifecycle + deployment workflow)
- ✅ Manual E2E testing completed with 100% success rate
- ✅ Pre-commit checks pass
## Documentation
