Hi Rene,

good to hear from you.

Clearly, we cannot stop at exactly one usage scenario.
But I strongly believe we need to start with exactly one.
When we have the contributions for that, we can probably ask much better questions for the next round, where we will add scenarios.

The slides are indeed more for SAAG and less for people who would focus on the logistics of rolling out 50000000000 devices.
SOLACE clearly goes beyond security, or we could do it right there in the security area.

The security objectives slides are divided into one for the specific ones for a scenario and one for the general ones (one could say "motherhood and apple pie" if they were better understood).  Even if the specific ones can be toned down, we still have the general ones, and that includes avoiding susceptibility to mass attacks.  (This is one of the points that were made at the March SoS workshop.)  And that is, very much, the reason why compromising on security always leads to security compromises.

Grüße, Carsten
