1. A method comprising:
receiving, at a particular security controller of a decentralized security system, a plurality of states associated with different hashed identifiers from a plurality of other security controllers of the decentralized security system;
receiving, at the particular security controller, a request from a particular client that is directed to a particular endpoint;
generating, by execution of the particular security controller, a first hashed value from hashing an identifier from the request that identifies the particular endpoint;
updating, by execution of the particular security controller, a first state of the plurality of states based on the first hashed value matching a hashed identifier that is associated with the first state, wherein the first state is a first cumulative count representing a number of times the particular endpoint is requested across the decentralized security system, and wherein a second state of the plurality of states represents a number of requests received from the particular client across the decentralized security system; and
implementing, at the particular security controller, a protective action in response to an updated value generated from updating the first state violating a security rule.
