User

User is the base type for creating user content. Logging into sensenet is possible using the credentials that belong to a user content.

Features

User is the base content for defining users who can log into the repository
the password is never persisted to the repository, only the hash of the password which is a lot more secure
users are created under a specific Domain (/Root/IMS/Public)
users may be organized under OrganizationalUnits and referenced in Groups to model organizational hierarchy and to define custom permission levels and roles in the repository
User profile: if this feature is enabled, when a new user is created a dedicated profile workspace is also created for them to store their documents, tasks and memos.
