+<a href="Security.html">Security</a> is implimented using a module
+structure and installations can configure which module they want to use.
+</p>
+<p>
+<a href="Security.html">Security</a> modules deal with various aspects of
+authentication and authorization:
+</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Determines if a filter excludes this host from dealing with a request
+
+</li>
+<li>Serialization and Deserialization of messages
+
+</li>
+<li>Validation of messages against keys, certificates or whatever the class
+choose to impliment
+
+</li>
+<li>Encoding and Decoding of messages
+
+</li>
+</ul>
+<p>
+To impliment a new security class using <a href="SSL.html">SSL</a> for
+example you would inherit from the base class and only impliment:
+</p>
+<ul>
+<li>decodemsg
+
+</li>
+<li>encodereply
+
+</li>
+<li>encoderequest
+
+</li>
+<li>validrequest?
+
+</li>
+</ul>
+<p>
+Each of these methods should increment various stats counters, see the
+default MCollective::Security::Psk module for examples of this
+</p>
+<p>
+Filtering can be extended by providing a new validate_filter? method.
