CakePHP ZoneAcl Plugin
======================

[](#cakephp-zoneacl-plugin)

CakePHP ZoneAcl plugin takes a little different approach to handling permissions in your CakePHP application. ZoneAcl lets you divide your application contollers/actions into groups, called zones. After you defined your arbitrary zones, you decide which users or groups get permission to which zones on any criteria you like. It provides simplicity and flexibility to your application acl.
