Follow up question regarding your general comments on sect 8.1 and 8.2
which we have not yet addressed in -09 ;

You're asking for greater detail in sect 8.1 precisely because you estimate
that third-party attacks (aka outsiders to a given conference) are more
likely/common than the attacks we covered in the subsequent 8.2 section.
 Is that correct?

If so, I think we could restate some of what we have in sect 8.1 to make it
flow better and/or be clearer.   But it is not clear to us what we left out
detail-wise, or if we left out other attack examples.

With PERC's HBH integrity checks, authentication as well as HBH and E2E
encryption, we can quickly describe in text the prevention/mitigation of
attacks on the confidentiality of the media/content - PERCs reason to be -
to explain some of the brevity.

Could you help point us in the right direction with an example or two of
the things we should do to detail/elaborate sect 8.1.
