Security ======== Good security is vital to the health and success of any application. Unfortunately, many developers cut corners when it comes to security, either due to a lack of understanding or because implementation is too much of a hurdle. To make your Yii powered application as secure as possible, Yii has included several excellent and easy to use security features. * [Authentication](security-authentication.md) * [Authorization](security-authorization.md) * [Working with Passwords](security-passwords.md) * [Cryptography](security-cryptography.md) * [Views security](structure-views.md#security) * [Auth Clients](https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2-authclient/blob/master/docs/guide/README.md) * [Best Practices](security-best-practices.md)
