Lower layer networking protocols are designed to naively and reliably deliver packets. Mid layer protocols can have crude rulesets base on IPs and ports that don't translate to real world use cases in motion. Only upper layer protocols can effectively control access. We need convenient, secure-enough layers of security that are as flexible as the application itself. There's no substitute for adopting a secure networking framework in every distributed application, and it's getting real with these new SDKs.
