• Basic — Clear text. This is the original and most compatible authentication scheme for
HTTP. However, it is also the least secure as it sends the user name and password

• Digest — Encrypts the password and thus is more secure than the basic authentication.
• NTLM — Uses a proprietary protocol of Microsoft and is considered to be more secure
than basic authentication.

them.
