## Integration with Trading Service

### Trading Security Context

Every trading operation includes comprehensive security context:

```rust
pub struct TradingSecurityContext {
    pub user_id: String,
    pub session_id: String,
    pub client_ip: String,
    pub operation_type: String,
    pub asset_symbol: String,
    pub quantity: f64,
    pub value_usd: f64,
    pub risk_level: RiskLevel,
    pub requires_mfa: bool,
    pub requires_approval: bool,
}
```

### Authorization Flow

1. **Token Validation**: JWT token verified and claims extracted
2. **Permission Check**: RBAC system validates trading permissions
3. **Risk Assessment**: Real-time risk calculation based on:
   - Position size and concentration
   - Market conditions and liquidity
   - User behavior patterns
   - Geographic and temporal factors
4. **Policy Enforcement**: Trading hours, limits, and restrictions
5. **MFA Requirements**: Dynamic MFA requirements based on trade size and risk
6. **Audit Logging**: Comprehensive event logging for compliance

### Risk-Based Controls

- **Dynamic MFA**: Larger trades require additional authentication
- **Position Limits**: Configurable per-user and per-asset limits
- **Geographic Restrictions**: Country-based access controls
- **Trading Hours**: Configurable market hours enforcement
- **Velocity Checks**: Daily and hourly volume limits

## Configuration

### Environment Variables

## Usage Examples

### Basic Authentication:

```rust
let security_service = SecurityIntegrationService::new(config).await?;

let auth_result = security_service.authenticate_user(
    "trader_username",
    "secure_password",
    "192.168.1.100",
    Some("TradingApp/2.0"),
    Some("123456"), // MFA code
).await?;

println!("User {} authenticated with risk level {:?}",
         auth_result.user_id, auth_result.risk_level);
```

### Trading Authorization:

```rust
let trading_context = TradingSecurityContext {
    user_id: auth_result.user_id,
    operation_type: "buy".to_string(),
    asset_symbol: "AAPL".to_string(),
    quantity: 1000.0,
    value_usd: 150_000.0,
    // ... other fields
};

let auth_result = security_service.authorize_trading_operation(
    trading_context,
    &jwt_token,
).await?;

if auth_result.authorized {
    // Proceed with trade execution
} else {
    // Handle authorization failure
}
```

### Data Encryption:

```rust
let sensitive_data = b"Trading order details...";
let encrypted = security_service.encrypt_trading_data(
    sensitive_data,
    Some("order_context"),
).await?;

// Store encrypted data
let decrypted = security_service.decrypt_trading_data(
    &encrypted,
    Some("order_context"),
).await?;
```
