A security package for Umbraco. Lock down an Umbraco website from viewers. Only users who are logged into the backoffice can see the public website.

This package is supported on:

• Umbraco 7.1.2+ with package version 1.x.x
• Umbraco 8+ with package version 2.x.x

SiteLock is available from Our Umbraco, NuGet, or as a manual download directly from GitHub.

You can find a downloadable package, along with a discussion forum for this package, on the Our Umbraco site.

To install from NuGet, run the following command in your instance of Visual Studio.

PM> Install-Package Cogworks.SiteLock

SiteLock is simply a module which is loaded dymically at runtime. It inspects the domain of each request, and then either allows it, or throws a HttpException with a status code of 403.

After installing the package, you'll be able to lock any website via /config/SiteLock.config.

This section of the configuration specifies specific domains to be locked in the Umbraco instance.

Example:

<lockedDomains>
    <domain>localhost</domain>
    <domain>staging.sitelock.local</domain>
</lockedDomains>

To lock all domains, simply use *. Example:

<lockedDomains>
    <domain>*</domain>
</lockedDomains>

This section of the configuration allows you to specify paths which can be allowed.

Example:

<allowedPaths>
	<path>^/news(.*)</path>
	<path>/403.html</path>
</allowedPaths>

Note that the paths are actually regular expressions. So in the example above, we allow paths which "start with" /news/.

This section of the configuration allows you to specify IPs which can be allowed.

Example:

<allowedIps>
	<ip>127.0.0.1</ip>
</allowedIps>

Changes to /config/SiteLock.config will require an application restart, as the config file cached at startup.

SiteLock was designed to be simple for developers. Just install via nuget or the Umbraco backoffice. Configure /config/SiteLock.config and you're good to go.
