+# Security Hardening Module
+
+This module addresses **4 HIGH severity security issues** in ML inference APIs:
+
+## Issues Fixed
+
+### 1. 🔒 Tensor Size Limits (DoS Prevention)
+**Problem:** Firewall accepts 100,000+ element tensors, creating a DoS vector.
+
+**Solution:** 
+- Maximum tensor elements: **10,000** (configurable)
+- Maximum dimensions: **4**
+- Maximum memory footprint: **10MB**
+
+```python
+from security import SecurityValidator
+
+validator = SecurityValidator()
+validator.validate_tensor_size(input_tensor)  # Raises TensorSizeError if too large
+```
+
+### 2. ✅ Real Security Controls (No Placeholders)
+**Problem:** Placeholder security controls throughout the codebase.
+
+**Solution:**
+- Input validation for NaN/Inf values
+- Negative value detection
+- Required field validation
+- Null/empty string checks
+- Comprehensive request validation
+
+```python
+validator.validate_input_values(tensor)  # Checks for NaN, Inf, negatives
+validator.validate_request_complete(request_data)  # Full request validation
+```
+
+### 3. 🌐 Secure CORS Configuration
+**Problem:** CORS wildcard (`*`) misconfiguration allows any origin.
+
+**Solution:**
+- Explicit allowed origins list (no wildcards)
+- Origin-specific headers
+- Credentials support with proper Vary header
+- Configurable max-age
+
+```python
+# Trusted origins only - NO wildcards!
+config = SecurityConfig(
+    ALLOWED_ORIGINS=(
+        "https://trusted-domain.com",
+        "https://app.trusted-domain.com",
+    )
+)
+validator = SecurityValidator(config)
+cors_headers = validator.get_cors_headers(origin)
+```
+
+### 4. 📦 Batch Processing Validation
+**Problem:** Empty batch processing without validation.
+
+**Solution:**
+- Reject empty batches
+- Maximum batch size limits
+- Batch consistency validation (shape/dtype)
+- Configurable thresholds
+
+```python
+validator.validate_batch_input(batch_data)  # Raises BatchValidationError if invalid
+```
+
+## Installation
+
+The module is located at `/workspace/security/` and requires numpy:
+
+```bash
+pip install numpy
+```
+
+## Quick Start
+
+```python
+from security import SecurityValidator, SecurityConfig, SecurityLevel
+
+# Create configuration
+config = SecurityConfig(
+    MAX_TENSOR_ELEMENTS=10000,
+    MAX_BATCH_SIZE=32,
+    SECURITY_LEVEL=SecurityLevel.STRICT,
+    ALLOWED_ORIGINS=("https://your-domain.com",)
+)
+
+# Initialize validator
+validator = SecurityValidator(config)
+
+# Use in your API endpoint
+@app.route('/inference', methods=['POST'])
+def inference():
+    origin = request.headers.get('Origin', '')
+    
+    # Validate CORS
+    cors_headers = validator.get_cors_headers(origin)
+    if not cors_headers and origin:
+        return {'error': 'Origin not allowed'}, 403
+    
+    # Get and validate input
+    input_data = request.json['input_data']
+    tensor = np.array(input_data)
+    
+    # Security validation
+    validator.validate_tensor_size(tensor)
+    validator.validate_input_values(tensor)
+    
+    # Process inference...
+    result = model.predict(tensor)
+    
+    response = {'result': result.tolist()}
+    response.headers.update(cors_headers)
+    return response
+```
+
+## Configuration Options
+
+| Parameter | Default | Description |
+|-----------|---------|-------------|
+| `MAX_TENSOR_ELEMENTS` | 10,000 | Maximum number of elements in a tensor |
+| `MAX_TENSOR_DIMENSIONS` | 4 | Maximum number of dimensions |
+| `MAX_BATCH_SIZE` | 32 | Maximum batch size for inference |
+| `MAX_INPUT_SIZE_BYTES` | 10MB | Maximum memory footprint |
+| `ALLOWED_ORIGINS` | Tuple | List of trusted CORS origins |
+| `REQUIRE_NON_EMPTY_BATCH` | True | Reject empty batches |
+| `CHECK_NAN_INF` | True | Validate against NaN/Inf values |
+| `SECURITY_LEVEL` | STRICT | STRICT, MODERATE, or PERMISSIVE |
+
+## Exception Types
+
+- `TensorSizeError`: Tensor exceeds size/dimension/memory limits
+- `CORSError`: Origin not in allowed list or is wildcard
+- `BatchValidationError`: Batch is empty, oversized, or inconsistent
+- `InputValidationError`: Input contains invalid values (NaN, Inf, etc.)
+- `SecurityError`: Base exception for all security violations
+
+## Testing
+
+Run the built-in test suite:
+
+```bash
+python security/security_hardening.py
+```
+
+Expected output shows all 4 security fixes working:
+```
+✅ Valid tensor accepted
+✅ SECURITY SUCCESS: Malicious tensor blocked
+✅ SECURITY SUCCESS: Wildcard origin blocked
+✅ SECURITY SUCCESS: Empty batch blocked
+✅ SECURITY SUCCESS: NaN input blocked
+```
+
+## Integration Examples
+
+### Flask Integration
+
+```python
+from flask import Flask, request, jsonify
+from security import SecurityValidator
+
+app = Flask(__name__)
+validator = SecurityValidator()
+
+@app.after_request
+def add_cors_headers(response):
+    origin = request.headers.get('Origin', '')
+    cors_headers = validator.get_cors_headers(origin)
+    for key, value in cors_headers.items():
+        response.headers[key] = value
+    return response
+
+@app.route('/api/infer', methods=['POST'])
+def infer():
+    data = request.json
+    validator.validate_request_complete(data)
+    # ... process inference
+    return jsonify({'status': 'success'})
+```
+
+### FastAPI Integration
+
+```python
+from fastapi import FastAPI, HTTPException, Request
+from fastapi.responses import JSONResponse
+from security import SecurityValidator
+
+app = FastAPI()
+validator = SecurityValidator()
+
+@app.middleware("http")
+async def security_middleware(request: Request, call_next):
+    origin = request.headers.get('Origin', '')
+    
+    # Store origin for later use
+    request.state.origin = origin
+    request.state.cors_headers = validator.get_cors_headers(origin)
+    
+    response = await call_next(request)
+    
+    # Add CORS headers
+    for key, value in request.state.cors_headers.items():
+        response.headers[key] = value
+    
+    return response
+
+@app.post("/api/infer")
+async def infer(request: Request):
+    data = await request.json()
+    
+    try:
+        validator.validate_request_complete(data)
+    except Exception as e:
+        raise HTTPException(status_code=400, detail=str(e))
+    
+    # ... process inference
+    return {"status": "success"}
+```
+
+## Security Best Practices
+
+1. **Always use STRICT mode in production**
+2. **Never allow CORS wildcard (*)** - explicitly list trusted domains
+3. **Set appropriate tensor size limits** based on your model's actual requirements
+4. **Enable rate limiting** in high-traffic scenarios
+5. **Log all security violations** for monitoring and alerting
+6. **Regularly review and update** allowed origins list
+7. **Validate all inputs** before processing, even from trusted sources
