Security and Authentication
You can make full use of the Symfony Security Component to handle complex authentication/authorization scenarios. Please be aware that also the Pimcore admin UI uses the Security component, so be careful when changing/modifying the configuration.
Login example
The Demo CMS profile provides a simple login
example using a User Pimcore object and a form_login authenticator which allows a site-wide login with public and
secured areas:
A simplified guide to this setup is illustrated in Authenticate against Pimcore Objects.
For more complex examples, custom user providers and a full configuration reference please read the Symfony Security Component documentation.
