PAPI
is a system for providing access control to restricted information resources
across the Internet. The authentication mechanisms are designed to be as
flexible as possible, allowing each organization to use its own authentication
schema, keeping user privacy, and offering information providers data enough
for statistics. Access control mechanisms are transparent to the user and
compatible with the most commonly employed Web browsers and any operating system.
Since PAPI uses standard HTTP procedures, PAPI authentication and access
control does not require any specific hardware or software, thus providing
users with ubiquitous access to any resource they have right to.
