Noujoum Assurances: the mobile API rejects every token, payroll can no longer authenticate and certificates are “not yet valid”
Casablanca · head office (Bouskoura datacenter) + AWS account eu-west-3 · Noujoum Assurances · 08:15 UTC
Noujoum Assurances (car and home insurance, 600 employees) runs in hybrid mode:
- at head office, an Active Directory forest
corp.noujoum.ma(the PDC emulator isdc-rabat-01), an AD CS PKI (certificate auto-enrollment) and AD FS (sts.noujoum-assurances.ma), which issues the JWT tokens of the policyholders' mobile app; - two internal time servers: ntp-gps-01 (GPS receiver on the roof, “stratum 1”) and ntp-02 (stratum 2);
- in AWS (
eu-west-3): the mobile API (API Gateway + Lambda authorizerauthz-jwt-noujoum), the Lambdasync-sinistresthat calls the internal APIapi-interne.corp.noujoum.maover the VPN, and domain-joined EC2 servers (SSSD), including app-paie-01.
This weekend, a waterproofing company redid the datacenter roof; a scheduled power cut took place at dawn this morning. Since about 06:40:
- the mobile app: 100 % of API calls return
401(“invalid token”); - the payroll team: “Clock skew too great” on app-paie-01, impossible to start the monthly calculation;
- the claims integration:
certificate is not yet validtowards the internal API.
You are on the on-call workstation (AWS CLI v2, SSH access to app-paie-01, dc-rabat-01 (OpenSSH,
PowerShell), ntp-02 and ntp-gps-01). The CTO wants an update before 09:00.
