- - ### Method Detail

    - #### init

          default void init(Properties securityProps)

      Given the security props of the server, properly initialize the post processor for the server. Initialized at cache creation
      Parameters:
        `securityProps` - security properties

    - #### processRegionValue

          Object processRegionValue(Object principal,
                                    String regionName,
                                    Object key,
                                    Object value)

      Process the value before sending it to the requester
      Parameters:
        `principal` - The principal that's accessing the value. The type of the principal will depend on how you implemented your SecurityManager
        `regionName` - The region that's been accessed. This could be null.
        `key` - the key of the value that's been accessed. This could be null.
        `value` - the original value. The original value could be null as well.
      Returns:
        the value that will be returned to the requester
