# Security 

Security is an important part of any adult web application. It is a common task to manage user access to particular resources.
Unlike the `Nebular Auth`, which provides a way to `authenticate` a user, `Nebular Security` helps you to `authorize` a user to access some of the application resources.

  <div class="note-title">Warning</div>
  <div class="note-body">
    Front-end ACL won't resolve all of the security issues and just provides a better user experience for your application.
    It is essential to duplicate security rules on the back-end side.
