This is a base class the other security modules should inherit from it handles statistics and validation of messages that should in most cases apply to all security models.
To create your own security plugin you should provide a plugin that inherits from this and provides the following methods:
decodemsg - Decodes a message that was received from the middleware encodereply - Encodes a reply message to a previous request message encoderequest - Encodes a new request message validrequest? - Validates a request received from the middleware
Optionally if you are identifying users by some other means like certificate name you can provide your own callerid method that can provide the rest of the system with an id, and you would see this id being usable in SimpleRPC authorization methods
The @initiated_by variable will be set to either :client or :node depending on who is using this plugin. This is to help security providers that operate in an asymetric mode like public/private key based systems.
Specifics of each of these are a bit fluid and the interfaces for this is not set in stone yet, specifically the encode methods will be provided with a helper that takes care of encoding the core requirements. The best place to see how security works is by looking at the provided MCollective::Security::PSK plugin.

Initializes configuration and logging as well as prepare a zero‘d hash of stats various security methods and filter validators should increment stats, see MCollective::Security::Psk for a sample

39: @config = Config.instance
40: @log = Log
41: @stats = PluginManager["global_stats"]

Returns a unique id for the caller, by default we just use the unix user id, security plugins can provide their own means of doing ids.
