Based on the scope described, the location of this filtering is the narrowest scope possible. We should avoid assumptions about how the ``HostDetails`` object is being consumed across threads, and make a defensive copy of it before modifying it. Also, the code can be simplified by to remove the ``containsKey`` if blocks.
