While searching for the right protocol, I worked on a small implementation of OAuth (v1 and v2) for a university class. On this experience I learned [what I was searching for](Requirements) with full details, I had a better view of the various qualities of an authentication protocol and I learned to [hate OAuth](OAuth Hate) with a passion.

With these premises I looked better for a little-known protocol or something that met my needs, and I could find none. Fenrir is thus the logical conclusion of my learning and searching: a protocol capable of handling cryptography like SSL/TLS, but with much better support for authentication, authorization and [federation](Federated_vs_Distributed) . Since I was building a new protocol from scratch, I decided to make it very flexible and to integrate all kinds of stuff, you can check the [Featues](Features) page for a list.
