The PAF provides the infrastructure to enable you to develop access control for portal and gear content, communities, pages, and gears. This is done primarily by means of Access Control Lists (ACLs). In addition, the PAF lets you log and audit access to gear objects. The gear developer can restrict access to content within a portal page by using access control tags. The gear developer can also programmatically access PAF security functionality by using the PAF Tag Library’s Permissions Methods.
