"Many Web applications require a way to restrict access to some resources (such as specific pages) so that those resources are accessible only to authenticated users. The default Web application project template for ASP.NET MVC provides a controller, data models, and views that you can use to add ASP.NET forms authentication to your application. The built-in functionality lets users register, log on and off, and change their password. For many applications, this functionality provides a sufficient level of user authentication."
"Naked Objects MVC combines the power of the naked objects pattern with Microsoft's ASP.NET MVC 2 framework.
Now you can take a POCO domain object model and turn it into a fully-functional web application in minutes, without writing a single line of user interface code.
You can then customise the generic user interface by adding custom style sheets, custom views and custom controllers, following standard ASP.NET patterns."

"ASP.NET MVC 3 introduced global filters, which allows you to add the AuthorizeAttribute filter to the global.asax file to protect every action method of every controller. (In MVC versions prior to MVC 3, it was difficult to enforce the AuthorizeAttribute attribute be applied to all methods except login/register. See my previous blog on security for details.) The code below shows how to add the AuthorizeAttribute filter globally."
