[okatu-loli]

Summary

I would like to propose the addition of an admin panel to the backend management system. This feature would allow administrators to manage blacklist/whitelist entries and configure rate limiting settings, enhancing the overall security and performance of the system.

Features

1. Admin Panel Interface

   • A user-friendly interface for administrators to manage security and performance settings.
   • Secure login and authentication for admin access to ensure only authorized personnel can access these features.

2. Blacklist/Whitelist Management

   • Ability to add, remove, and view entries in the blacklist and whitelist.
   • Search functionality to quickly locate specific entries.
   • API endpoints to programmatically manage blacklist/whitelist entries.

3. Rate Limiting Configuration

   • Set rate limits for different APIs or user groups.
   • View current rate limit settings and usage statistics.
   • API endpoints for getting and setting rate limits.

Benefits

• Enhanced Security: Protect the system from malicious users by using blacklists.
• Improved Performance: Prevent abuse of resources through rate limiting.
• Better User Management: Easily manage trusted users through whitelists.

Implementation Suggestions

1. Backend Changes

   • Create new database tables for storing blacklist/whitelist entries and rate limit configurations.
   • Develop API endpoints for managing these features.
   • Implement middleware for enforcing rate limits and checking blacklist/whitelist status.

2. Frontend Changes

   • Develop a new admin panel interface using the existing frontend framework.
   • Include forms and tables for managing blacklist/whitelist entries and rate limits.
   • Implement user authentication and authorization mechanisms.
