-------------------------------------------------------------
This is an interesting improvement.
I'd like to learn more about the behavior and details.
Please consider adding this to the existing WebAppSec provider instead of a
separate provider though.
EDIT: just noticed it is already committed. This should be refactored and
rolled into the existing web application security provider.

> Implement a new DoS security provider
> -------------------------------------

> Key: KNOX-2806
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KNOX-2806
> Project: Apache Knox
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Server
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0
> Reporter: Sandor Molnar
> Assignee: Balazs Marton
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 2.0.0
>
> Time Spent: 1h
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> There is a need to implement a mechanism that prevents Knox from being
> attacked using DoS (Denial of Service).
> One elegant way is to reuse Jetty's own DoS filter in a way such that it can
> be configured as a new security provider:
> * Maven project name: {{gateway-provider-security-dos}}
> * Provider role: {{dos}}
> * Provider name: {{JettyDoS}}
> In case someone wants to use this new feature, the new provider declaration
> has to be added to the top of the providers (it must be documented). When
> this provider is present in the topology, Jetty's DosFilter has to be
> contributed to the filter chain. That is, a new
> {{ProviderDeploymentContributor}} should be implemented that inserts the
> {{org.eclipse.jetty.servlets.DoSFilter}} into each resource that is available
> in the topology.
