### Access control list (ACL)
The access control list (ACL) **manages access to topics for non-admin users, and for anonymous access**. Each entry
represents the access permissions for a user to a specific topic or topic pattern.
The access control list (ACL) **manages access to topics for non-admin users, and for anonymous access (`everyone`/`*`)**.
Each entry represents the access permissions for a user to a specific topic or topic pattern.
The ACL can be displayed or modified with the `ntfy access` command:
```
ntfy access # Shows the entire access control list
ntfy access # Shows access control list (alias: 'ntfy user list')
ntfy access USERNAME # Shows access control entries for USERNAME

### Example: Private instance
The easiest way to configure a private instance is to set `auth-default-access` to `deny-all` in the `server.yml`:
``` yaml
auth-file "/var/lib/ntfy/user.db"
auth-default-access: "deny-all"
```
=== "/etc/ntfy/server.yml"
``` yaml
auth-file "/var/lib/ntfy/user.db"
auth-default-access: "deny-all"
```
After that, simply create an `admin` user:

### Authentication
Depending on whether the server is configured to support [access control](../config.md#access-control), some topics
may be read/write protected so that only users with the correct credentials can subscribe or publish to them.
To publish/subscribe to protected topics, you can use [Basic Auth](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication)
with a valid username/password. For your self-hosted server, **be sure to use HTTPS to avoid eavesdropping** and exposing
your password.

curl -u phil:mypass -s "https://ntfy.example.com/mytopic/json"
