Trust / Security architecture
Explore the security principles documented for WebFrolic: bounded identity flows, configurable assurance, network restrictions, rate limits and auditability.
Explore the design intent, review practical decisions and validate exact behavior against your deployed configuration.
Why it matters
Security depends on the interactions between components. A strong individual feature can be undermined by incomplete transitions, broad privileges or an operational workaround.
Design intent
Start from a specific threat model, map it to the relevant product controls, test the complete flow and document limitations. Treat vendor claims, deployed configuration and independent assurance as separate evidence categories.
Worked scenario
A team tests whether adding a new authenticator requires the right existing-factor check and verifies that the operation leaves an audit trail.
Boundary to verify
Confirm enforcement at the relevant server, API, resource or operational decision point. A hidden button or an informative dashboard is not, by itself, an authorization control.
Practical path
Use these stages as a review guide. Exact settings and enforcement points depend on the configured deployment and connected systems.
Identify the actor, target resource and operation that security is meant to govern.
Start from a specific threat model, map it to the relevant product controls, test the complete flow and document limitations. Treat vendor claims, deployed configuration and independent assurance as separate evidence categories.
A team tests whether adding a new authenticator requires the right existing-factor check and verifies that the operation leaves an audit trail. Also test the path that should be denied, deferred or sent for review.
Check that the resulting state is understandable and that the decision can be investigated later. For audit-enabled operations, confirm the relevant actor and context are captured.
Before rollout
A capability is easier to operate when ownership, failure behavior and verification are defined upfront.
This page describes a design approach based on WebFrolic’s documented product model. Verify feature availability and exact behavior in your environment before relying on it for a control requirement.

Evaluate with your scenario
Share the identities, resource boundary and decision you want to test. The walkthrough can focus on the relevant behavior rather than a generic feature tour.
