Remarks
This is an architectural control and not a security boundary, since untrusted parties may acquire a service that you *do* allow to acquire this service, thus giving indirect access to this service to the untrusted client. Use IAuthorizationService (usually via the caching AuthorizationServiceClient wrapper) to perform security checks within your publicly exposed methods to ensure the ultimate client is authorized to perform any operation.
