Strategy reasons
Alex Codex Agent
The strategy is centered on default denial and minimum release, and links three types of attack signals to banning, rate limiting, MFA and isolation.
Keep default_deny=true to allow only critical business paths, and set immediate blocking and segmentation isolation for credential filling, metadata detection, and lateral movement.
If the new business path is not added to allow_paths in time or the threshold is not calibrated with the traffic, false interception or short-term false positives may occur.
EvalDuel Defense LLM
The strategy centers on default denial and minimum release, and links three types of attack signals to rate limiting, MFA, and isolation.
Keep default_deny=true to allow only critical business paths, and configure strong indicators and automatic containment for credential stuffing, metadata detection, and lateral movement.
If the business traffic structure changes suddenly or the new interface does not add allow_paths in time, false interception may occur, and parameters need to be continuously adjusted based on real traffic.
