Improved security through TYPO3 backend access restriction
Background: Optimizing access control to the backend
The TYPO3 backend of a productive instance can only be accessed by a selected group of people. Access control is usually coordinated through individual backend user accounts and specially set up backend user groups. However, especially for admin users or accounts with additional or even full rights, it makes sense to restrict access to a specific IP range - both on test and productive instances. This is where our extension beuser_iprange comes into play.
Our solution: Extension beuser_iprange
TYPO3 CMS is GDPR-compliant out-of-the-box and offers users and operators a high level of security without the need for extensions. Users can rely on our beuser_iprange extension if they nonetheless wish to additionally secure their TYPO3 backend. The extension makes it possible to restrict access to the TYPO3 backend to previously defined IP addresses / IP ranges. Users who try to access the system from outside do not even reach the login page.
