Carrying on from the 10 Essential Umbraco Packages For SEO article last month, I thought I’d continue the series by taking a look at a what packages are available for added security. Whilst Umbraco’s role based security works great, sometimes you just need that fine-grained control over who can access what.
With that in mind, here are 5 Essential Umbraco Packages For Added Security (in no particular order)
This package allows you to disable properties on a document type based on the user type.
This package is an extension to the back-end that allows you to hide tabs on your content pages from certain user groups.
3. Attackmonkey Security Helper
This package is a simple package that improves the security of the users section by adding a regexp validator to the password field of the password editor that enforces a basic minimum password strength.
This package prevents users from deleting folders you don’t want them to delete by blocking the delete action for any document type with a true/false property with the alias umbracoDisableDelete defined with its value set to true.
This package enables you to store docs on a secure location so only defined members (or member groups) are allowed to download after logging in.
