You basically need to just not have anyone untrusted access the  
trackers directly.

Read access is easy enough as you just give an HTTP interface to the  
Mogile contents - the http doing the tracker lookups can be run by  
yourself.

For writes, the easiest should be setting up a WebDav interface for  
your users to access.  You can have the users set meta data when they  
write that the HTTP interface for reads then uses to decide who has  
access.
