- **UI**: Avalonia (cross-platform) or WPF (Windows)
- **API Client**: Shared library (Themis.AdminTools.Shared)
- **Authentication**: JWT Bearer tokens
- **Data Format**: JSON over REST API

### Shared Components

```

**Documentation**: [admin-tools-shared.md](admin-tools-shared.md)

## Installation & Setup

### Prerequisites

- .NET 8.0 SDK or later
- Access to running ThemisDB server
- Valid authentication credentials
- Appropriate permissions for admin operations

### Installation Steps

```bash
# Clone repository
git clone https://github.com/makr-code/ThemisDB.git
cd ThemisDB/tools

# Restore dependencies
dotnet restore

# Build all admin tools
dotnet build

# Run a specific tool (example: PII Manager)
cd Themis.PIIManager
dotnet run
```

### Configuration

Each tool uses an `appsettings.json` configuration file:

```json
{
  "ThemisDB": {
    "BaseUrl": "http://localhost:8080",
    "BearerToken": "your-jwt-token-here",
    "Timeout": 30
  },
  "Logging": {
    "LogLevel": {
      "Default": "Information"
    }
  }
}
```

## Security Best Practices

When using admin tools:

1. **Authentication**
   - Always use strong authentication tokens
   - Rotate tokens regularly
   - Never commit tokens to version control

2. **Network Security**
   - Use TLS/HTTPS for all connections
   - Consider VPN for remote access
   - Implement IP whitelisting where possible

3. **Access Control**
   - Apply principle of least privilege
   - Use role-based access control (RBAC)
   - Audit all admin actions

4. **Data Protection**
   - Encrypt sensitive data at rest and in transit
   - Use secure key storage (HSM, cloud KMS)
   - Implement data masking for display

5. **Audit & Compliance**
   - Enable comprehensive audit logging
   - Regular compliance reviews
   - Document all administrative actions
