About Security Access+ 

Do you need to invite guests or special contributors to your community, but don't want to give them access to general areas? Our Security Access+ widget allows for just that! With this widget, you can provide non-community members with specific permissions so that they can participate as a special contributor or guest blogger in a secure area without granting them access to confidential or internal-only areas of your community. A common example of where this is used is with an expert center. You want to have experts come in to contribute to the expert center however you do not want them seeing any other area within the site. With this widget that is possible and this guide will walk you through how to do so!
