Overview

Bloomreach Content security covers authentication, authorization, auditing, and application-level protections. Security features apply to both the authoring environment (CMS) and the delivery tier.

  • Authentication: Controls user identity and access to the CMS and delivery applications. Includes login configuration, password policies, two-factor authentication, and external identity providers.
  • Authorization: Manages user permissions and access rights within the repository and application. Covers users, groups, roles, security domains, and system users.
  • Application Security: Addresses web application security for the CMS, including session management and protection against common vulnerabilities.
  • Auditing: Enables tracking of user actions for compliance and security monitoring.
  • Walkthroughs: Provides step-by-step guides for common security scenarios, such as restricting access, setting permissions, and configuring workflow security.

When to Use

Use this overview to identify relevant security topics and configuration guides for your implementation. Select the appropriate links based on whether you are configuring security for the authoring environment, the delivery tier, or both.
