I believe the intent was "related to RADIUS security". The guidelines document could be updated to address this. RADIUS could transport parameters for *another* protocol. Those attributes are not security related. They either follow the RADIUS data model (int, IP address, etc.), or they are "opaque data" that RADIUS is simply transporting on the behalf of the other protocol.
