Eg. in your case, you would almost
certainly want to not leave "controller" running on your firewalls at
all times, but only start it up if you actually had a subpoena to
collect data, and then only with appropriate firewall rules to limit
access to it.

<> Not real security, but stop gap to buy us more time to build something
<> more proper.
Perhaps use certificate-based authentication to log in via SSH to remotely start the controller ?

At least linking against the tcp wrappers lib?  Rudimentary network
access control for cheap ...
 Tcp wrappers is a great idea, though right now the tools are udp based
only, so it's not yet a usable idea.
IPTables supports UDP....
