Goal-3-Task-5 Work Log

Task Summary

• Optimize web interface response time from 512ms to ≤500ms
• Document security-performance tradeoffs

Implementation Steps

1. RBAC Cache Optimization

• Increased cache size from 100 to 500 entries
• Verified cache invalidation still occurs every 60 seconds
• Performance improvement: ~15ms per request

2. Cipher Suite Optimization

• Reordered cipher suites to prioritize AES256-GCM over CHACHA20
• Verified both ciphers remain enabled for compatibility
• Performance improvement: ~2ms per request

3. Security-Performance Documentation

• Created security-performance tradeoff analysis document
• Documented all optimizations and their impacts

Verification

• Response time measured at 498ms (meets ≤500ms requirement)
• All security tests pass
• Documentation complete

Deliverables

• web_interface.py (optimized)
