## 🔐 How It Works

### Simple Flow
```
User Logs In
    ↓
Verify Email
    ↓
Check Role Middleware
    ↓
Route Handler/Controller
    ↓
Filter Data by Company (if not super_admin)
    ↓
Render Dashboard/Page
    ↓
Log Activity
```

### Authorization Layers
1. **Middleware** - Routes protected by `check.role:role_name`
2. **Controller** - Data filtered by company_id for non-super_admin
3. **Policy** - Granular control on resource actions
4. **View** - Conditional rendering based on role
5. **Logging** - All access recorded for audit trail
