TYPO3 Extension `basic_authentication`
======================================

[](#typo3-extension-basic_authentication)

This extension makes it possible to add a basic authentication for backend and frontend.

**Pro**

No need for maintaining a `.htaccess` and `.htpasswd` file as the user and their password are configured within the extension configuration.

**Con**

The extensions uses the concept of the *MiddleWares* which will only protect requests covered by those. This means that any direct file access, e.g. to extensions or fileadmin is still possible!
