Zot

Zot is a JSON-based web framework for implementing secure decentralised communications and services.

It differs from many other communication protocols by building communications on top of a decentralised identity and authentication framework.

The authentication component is similar to OpenID conceptually but is insulated from DNS-based identities. Where possible remote authentication is silent and invisible. This provides a mechanism for internet scale distributed access control which is unobtrusive.
