Hi Carlos, Thanks for encouraging me, I kind of grew a bit desperate. I'm security person, not a Cassandra expert, and doing security assessment of Cassandra DB, I have to rely on community heavily. I will put together a composed version of all my previous queries, will title it "Security assessment questions" and will post it once again.
As per the session timeout, my understanding, Cassandra currently doesn't support it. I didn't find any mention of it in documentation. Also, I just ran simple experiment on my installation (version 2.1.8, default settings): I opened two ssh sessions on my Linux server, hosting Cassandra DB. On one, I entered cqlsh, another was just left as is. Then I stepped away from computer and went for breakfast. Now here are the results: first session with cqlsh still sits there, 50 minutes into it. Second was terminated in 15 minutes (ssh session timeout). As per the mailing list, a little housekeeping suggestion if I may. Right now our mailing list allows to reply to user@cassandra.apache.org. That leads to a situation, when all the emails are getting filtered to the same folder at the recipients end (I have it setup such way, I'm sure everybody else have similar setup too). If we will introduce "Reply to All" option, which would allow to reply not only to mailing list, but to personal email addresses of guys, involved into this particular conversation, those emails would bypass filters and would end up in our personal emails space in Inbox. This way we would help correspondents, engaged into the conversation to notice those emails easily, understand that those are targeted to them and stay engaged in the conversation, until the issue would be resolved one way or another.
