Liferay uses a granular system of authorizations.

Liferay Portal has a reusable, extensible authorization architecture that is used throughout the portal and is applicable to individual portlet elements such as buttons, messages, portlets and users. Administrators can customize and control who can access sensitive information and functionality.
