Hi all,

In line with the ongoing developments regarding TACACS+ security, the following 
suggestions may help strengthen security content in the document:

• 9. Security considerations:
- 2nd paragraph: only management protocols with adequate security apparatus, 
such as ***state-of-the-art encryption, mutual*** authentication [...]
- Additional paragraph: ***The security implications of password-based 
authentication should be taken into account when designing a New Protocol or 
Protocol Extension.***

• Introduction, 1st paragraph: certain protocol design choices may make 
deployment, operations, and management particularly difficult ***or insecure***

And possibly:

• 5.8 Security management, 1st paragraph: Protocol Designers should consider 
how to monitor and manage security aspects and vulnerabilities of the New 
Protocol or Protocol Extension***, including periodically re-assessing the 
design of the New Protocol or Protocol Extension as vulnerabilities arise***

Regards,
Ionathan
