Basic Proxy Facade is a HTTP(s) proxy server facade that allows applications to authenticate through a Kerberos authenticated proxy server, typically used in corporate environments, without having to deal with the actual handshake.

A lot of software applications have problems when dealing with an authenticated proxy server’s protocol. BPF sits between the corporate proxy and applications and offloads the authentication and the proxy’s protocol, acting as a facade. This way, the software application will only have to deal with a basic proxy with no authentication.
