hardening opportunity) with no need for embargo nor advisory. Triaging
accordingly.

  The issue description as following:
  All the components of swift-proxy, swift-account-server, swift-container-server, swift-object-server can be deployed in multi-node. All the services of swift-store can be access without authentication, swift-proxy as a client, it communicates to the swift-store though clear http connection.
