Check out the CGI authentication documentation:
https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... iauth.html

It's pretty comprehensive and offers setups by which you can authenticate specific users to specific objects. Essentially, you configure a contact with the exact same name as your basic authentication user. Objects with that matching contact assigned will show up in the GUI for that user.
