Raven/Webauth

Ucam Webauth is the original protocol that was introduced along with the Raven service in September 2004. It's fairly simple to use, and provides a webserver with an authenticated CRSid representing the identity of the browser user. It is however Cambridge-specific and little known outside the University.

NEW INSTALLATIONS SHOULD NOT MAKE USE OF Raven/WebAuth.
