This chapter focuses on implementing authentication and authorization in your Wicket applications. Here, we will examine how to log users in and out of the application, as well as how to isolate access to a subset of pages to only users who are logged in. We will also examine how to authorize components based on the user who has logged in, allowing them to respond to the permissions of that user. Finally, we will look at some general ways to secure the application from outside tampering.
