Chapter 8Knock, Knock: Who’s There? Grails Security

Our customer keeps asking us when we are going to add security. We keep telling him, “As soon as we need it.” But seriously, as we progress with the TekDays application, it’s going to be very helpful to know who’s using the application. Not only would that allow us to limit access to certain data or areas of the application, but it would also let us be more intelligent about what we display to our users.

Our goal this time around is to implement a simple security system and see how we can use it to provide a more customized user experience.
