> NiFi should include a simple option for username/password authentication backed by a local file store.  NiFi's existing certificate and LDAP authentication schemes are very secure.  However, the configuration and setup is complex, making them more suitable for long-lived corporate and government installations, but less accessible for casual or short-term use.  Simple username/password authentication would help more users secure more NiFi installations beyond anonymous admin access.
