Limitations

Dhal is not a complete security platform.

​
Not a DDoS shield

Dhal runs after traffic reaches your Node process. It cannot stop upstream bandwidth exhaustion. Use CDN, cloud, or network-level DDoS controls.

​
Not an auth system

Dhal does not replace authentication, authorization, session management, or password security.

​
Not input validation

Dhal detects suspicious request patterns, but your app must still validate and sanitize input according to business rules.

​
Not a guarantee

No WAF guarantees complete protection. Treat Dhal as one layer in a defense-in-depth strategy.

​
Alpha caution

Dhal is pre-1.0. Pin versions and test policy changes before enforcement.
