• Path Manipulation: Rewrite URLs using StripPrefix, AddPrefix, ReplacePath, and their regex counterparts.
• Security: Enforce IP allow lists, add security headers, and manage TLS client certificates.
• Traffic Control: Apply rate limiting, circuit breakers, and retry mechanisms.
• Use Case: Secure an API endpoint by adding Basic Authentication and rate limiting to prevent abuse.
