Security, Identity and Access Management

ID providers represent the pluggable abstraction layer for user authentication. To authenticate or even create users in XP, you will need to create an ID provider.

XP provide three basic principals, users, groups and roles. Combined with ID providers these are the essence of Enonic IAM.

In addition to users, roles and groups, the CMS (and underlying NoSQL storage) supports fine-grained access control mechanisms down to a single item.
