简介：MinIO public buckets can pose a security risk when accessed directly, as they list all files inside. This article outlines steps to disable this feature and enhance security.

MinIO, a popular object storage solution, allows you to create buckets that can be accessed publicly. However, by default, when accessing a public bucket, it lists all the files inside, posing a security risk. In this article, we will explore how to disable this feature and enhance the security of your MinIO public buckets.
The first step is to set up the MinIO server and create a public bucket if you haven’t already. After creating the bucket, you need to modify the bucket policy to restrict access.
Method 1: Editing the Bucket Policy using the MinIO Console
If you are using the MinIO console, follow these steps:

  1. Log in to the MinIO console.
  2. Select the bucket you want to modify.
  3. Click on the “Permissions” tab.
  4. Click on the “Edit” button.
  5. In the edit dialog, modify the policy by removing the “ListBucket” action.
  6. Click “Save” to apply the changes.
    Method 2: Editing the Bucket Policy using a S3 Compatible Client
    If you prefer to use a S3 compatible client like S3 Browser, follow these steps:
  7. Download and install S3 Browser.
    2.Open S3 Browser and connect to your MinIO server.
    3.Select the bucket you want to modify.
    4.Right-click on the bucket and select “Edit Bucket Policy”.
    5.In the edit dialog, remove the “ListBucket” action from the policy.
    6.Click “Save” to apply the changes.
    By following either of these methods, you have successfully disabled the listing of files in your MinIO public bucket. Now, when someone tries to access your public bucket directly, they will no longer see a list of files inside. This enhancement in security helps protect your data from unauthorized access.
    Remember to regularly review and update your MinIO security settings to ensure that your data remains secure. It’s also crucial to use strong credentials and implement other security measures like IP restrictions or two-factor authentication for additional protection.
