Try reading through this guide first:
http://docs.farcrycms.org:8080/confluence/display/FCDEV30/Security

Securing sections of the site tree is very straightforward.

Hiding navigation items from unauthenticated users has performance
issues in any system as you have to validate the users credentials
before rendering the navigation -- without making some concessions
this can be very resource intensive, especially for large menu
structures.  Certainly it can be done, however the standard generic
nav tag does not do this by default.
