Either of those might find a use for it.  Running it on a proxy
has the advantage of being the first port of call, so long
as nothing bad can come from behind the proxy.  I guess
that's a similar question to authentication at the proxy.
The "what are you protecting against" (malicious vs
accidental attack) might be relevant too if you have
both internal/trusted and external/untrusted users.
