             Summary: Simple Username/Password Authentication
                 Key: NIFI-1614
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1614
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Extensions
            Reporter: James Wing
            Priority: Minor


NiFi should include a simple option for username/password authentication backed 
by a local file store.  NiFi's existing certificate and LDAP authentication 
schemes are very secure.  However, the configuration and setup is complex, 
making them more suitable for long-lived corporate and government 
installations, but less accessible for casual or short-term use.  Simple 
username/password authentication would help more users secure more NiFi 
installations beyond anonymous admin access.
