Security Component - ACL (Access Control List)
==============================================

[](#security-component---acl-access-control-list)

Security provides an infrastructure for sophisticated authorization systems, which makes it possible to easily separate the actual authorization logic from so called user providers that hold the users credentials. It is inspired by the Java Spring framework.
