Sentry

This package is DEPRECATED, please check our Sentinel package for a better authentication & authorization system.

Sentry is a PHP 5.3+ fully-featured authentication & authorization system. It also provides additional features such as user groups and additional security features.

Sentry is a framework agnostic set of interfaces with default implementations, though you can substitute any implementations you see fit.

Features

It also provides additional features such as user groups and additional security features:

• Configurable authentication (can use any type of authentication required, such as username or email)
• Authorization
• Activation of user (optional)
• Groups and group permissions
• "Remember me"
• User suspension
• Login throttling (optional)
• User banning
• Password resetting
• User data
• Interface driven - switch out your own implementations at will
