Authentication Sensitive Event
------------------------------

When a user is successfully authenticated, the security component will also
dispatch a ``security.authentication.success_sensitive`` event just before
erasing credentials and dispatching the regular success event. The event object
will contain the token used to authenticate, allowing you to act upon its
sensitive information.

A common use for this would be to check whether a user's password needs
rehashing to stay up to date with current encryption standards.
