Spring Security Fundamentals
Set up Spring Security, understand its architecture, and implement basic in-memory authentication.
Welcome to Spring Security!
Securing web applications is crucial in today's digital world. Spring Security is a powerful and highly customizable authentication and access-control framework for Spring applications.
It provides robust security features, allowing you to protect your application from common vulnerabilities and control who can access what.
Why Spring Security?
Imagine building an online store. You need to:
- Authenticate users: Verify a user's identity (login).
- Authorize actions: Determine what a user can do (e.g., only admins can delete products).
- Protect against threats: CSRF, XSS, session fixation.
Spring Security handles all these complex tasks, letting you focus on your application's core logic.
