Discuss potential design and implementation threats & mitigations here.
== Security Logging & Defense ==
===DOS Defense===
* Least Recently Used (LRU) approach for monitoring IP addresses issuing frequent requests
** Configurable threshold for adding IP address to Blacklist/Penalty Box
** Configurable time-out for IP addresses added to Blacklist/Penalty Box
** Concern - NAT'ed IP address used by multiple users
=== TearDown DOS Defense ===
* Tear down requires valid channel and valid x-keyexchange-id value
* Statistically unlikely. Channel is 4 characters and keyexchange-id is 255 characters
===Logging Points===
CEF logging even generated for the following:
* Bad action taken against a valid channel id
* Any action taken against an invalid channel id
* Client fallback to original sync method
* IP address sent to black list due to DOS prevention controls
