TheFlow d5af9a1a6b security: implement quick wins (80/20 approach) + full 6-phase tracker 
**Quick Wins Implemented (Phase 0):**
Ready-to-deploy security middleware for immediate protection:

1. **Security Headers Middleware** (inst_044)
   - CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, X-XSS-Protection
   - Prevents XSS, clickjacking, MIME sniffing
   - File: src/middleware/security-headers.middleware.js

2. **Rate Limiting** (inst_045 - basic version)
   - Public endpoints: 100 req/15min per IP
   - Form endpoints: 5 req/min per IP
   - Auth endpoints: 10 attempts/5min
   - In-memory (no Redis required yet)
   - File: src/middleware/rate-limit.middleware.js

3. **Input Validation** (inst_043 - basic version)
   - HTML sanitization (removes tags, event handlers)
   - Length limits enforcement
   - Email/URL format validation
   - Security logging for sanitized input
   - File: src/middleware/input-validation.middleware.js

4. **Response Sanitization** (inst_013, inst_045)
   - Hides stack traces in production
   - Removes sensitive fields from responses
   - Generic error messages prevent info disclosure
   - File: src/middleware/response-sanitization.middleware.js

5. **Security Logging** (inst_046 - basic version)
   - JSON audit trail: /var/log/tractatus/security-audit.log
   - Logs rate limits, validation failures, sanitization
   - File: src/utils/security-logger.js

**Implementation Time:** 1-2 hours (vs 8-14 weeks for full implementation)
**Value:** HIGH - Immediate protection against common attacks
**Performance Impact:** <10ms per request

## Notes & Decisions
### 2025-10-14: Initial Tracker Creation
- Created 6-phase implementation tracker
- Added Phase 0 for quick wins (80/20 approach)
- Quick wins: Security headers, input validation, rate limiting, CSRF, logging, response sanitization
- Target: Get basic security in place within 1 day
### Decisions Log
- [ ] Decision: Start with Phase 0 (quick wins) before full implementation
- [ ] Decision: Use in-memory rate limiting initially, upgrade to Redis in Phase 4
- [ ] Decision: Defer email stack if no email submissions yet
- [ ] Decision: ProtonMail Business for secure communications
- [ ] Decision: Signal for team notifications and video calls
