Unauthorized Access Risk

At this stage, the application is not fully complete, and user authorization for every user role is being implemented. Once finished, users will only be able to access the sections of the application related to their specific role.

Authentication Management

The backend manages the access of data to different user roles and ensures secure user sessions. The front-end team is integrating the APIs for user interactions.

Navigation Control

Right now, navigation across the app may be possible because user role authentication is not yet fully implemented, but once it is, unauthorized navigation and access to specific web pages will be prevented.

Technical Limitations

Technical limitations like API routing checks, performance impact, authentication verification, and session management, are handled by the backend development team to ensure security and efficient performance.

User Experience Issues

The application has separate user portals for each user type, as it was planned during the design phase. If there are any user experience suggestions, the team is open to discuss them and make improvements.

Study Notes

Unauthorized Access Risk

  • Authentication and authorization not fully implemented for all user roles in the web application
  • Partial implementation only includes some user interface elements (UI)
  • Full implementation will prevent users from navigating to sections designed for other roles
  • Authorization checks are crucial and will be in place eventually

Authentication Management

  • Backend manages access to data for different user roles
  • Secure user sessions are managed by the backend
  • Development team is handling backend implementation currently
  • Frontend is integrating API
  • User navigation across user portals currently permitted due to incomplete authentication flow
  • Role-based authentication will prevent unauthorized navigation
  • This will be in place once full authentication is implemented

Technical Limitations

  • API routing, performance impact, authentication verification, and session management are handled by the backend
  • Development team working to improve security and performance

User Experience Issues

  • Separate user portals are planned for different user types in the design phase
  • Feedback and suggestions are welcome to collaborate and design improvements

Impact Without Solution

  • Incomplete implementations create vulnerabilities, especially related to backend responsibilities
  • Team is committed to resolving these vulnerabilities to ensure secure and smooth user experience after further development
