HTL Rennweg

Description

Using the Symfony security system for authenticating users and controlling access.

Goals

I know

• in which scenarios the Symfony security system is used
• which authentication steps are handled by Symfony when using the system
• how user classes interact with the security system
• what authentication providers are

I can

• install the security system
• configure password hashing
• setup authentication in via the firewalls section of the security configuration
• make use of a built-in authentication provider
• deny access for specific routes based on user roles
• make use of URL patterns to secure entire URL patterns
• get a User object of the current user in a controller
• enable logging out
