This comment was discussed and resolved by adding the following lines: A DOTS client is entitled to access only to resources it creates. In particular, a DOTS client cannot retrieve data related to mitigation requests created by other DOTS clients of the same DOTS client domain. Further, the draft points to DOTS security considerations discussed in DOTS requirements draft which says the following: To detect compromised DOTS agents, DOTS operators should carefully monitor and audit DOTS agents to detect misbehavior and to deter misuse, while employing current secure network communications best practices to reduce attack surface. > > > A nit: > > > > - p91: The mention of TCP-AO seems to require suspension of disbelief > > (given the lack of deployment of TCP-AO).

We can update the use of TCP-AO as follows: Although not widely adopted, if TCP-AO is used, then any bogus packets injected by an attacker will be rejected by the TCP-AO integrity check and therefore will never reach the TLS layer.
