<p>The <c>SecurityCallbackModule</c> is a user-written module that can receive
events from the <c>mod_security</c> Erlang web server API module.
This module only exports the functions event/[4,5]
which are described here.

<func>

<p><c>event/4</c> or <c>event/5</c> is called whenever an event
occurs in the <c>mod_security</c> Erlang web server API module.
(<c>event/4</c> is called if <c>Address</c> is undefined,
otherwise <c>event/5</c>.
Argument <c>What</c> specifies the type of event that has
occurred and is one of the following reasons:
</p>
<taglist>
<tag><c>auth_fail</c></tag>
<item><p>A failed user authentication.</p></item>
<tag><c>user_block</c></tag>
<item><p>A user is being blocked from access.</p></item>
<tag><c>user_unblock</c></tag>
<item><p>A user is being removed from the block list.</p></item>
</taglist>
<note>
<p>The event <c>user_unblock</c> is not triggered when
a user is removed from the block list explicitly using the
<c>unblock_user</c> function.</p>
