Well, the Security area wonks are going to want us to have a threat  
assessment. What is the risk? In what scenarios does it occur? What  
are the consequences?

Given the threat assessment, we then need to understand how the

What is the recommended policy? How does it impact behavior in a  
system that uses this solution?
