  • Could you just use ssh public-private keypairs instead? Commented Dec 29, 2015 at 14:03
  • Ok , to be precise , my python script triggers a remote Jenkins job , and Jenkins needs authentication with user-name and password as a part of this process , so how can ssh and key pairs help here? I am already using https , thats not a problem, but still user-name and password is needed by Jenkins to trigger a particular job. Commented Dec 29, 2015 at 14:11
