> This is a new feature.
> Purpose of this feature :
> This is a framework to handle security within Airavata. For the moment we are only focusing on REST related security. We can use different methodologies to do authentication and authorization. E.g :- authentication using Basic Auth, Session Token. Responsibility of this framework is to hide details about underlying authentication mechanism. Airavata will only be aware about the framework but not about underlying authentication implementation.
