Guys,
BIRT doesn't allow to generate password protected pdf reports but you can do it very easy using 3rd party software. After that you can use it in any portal software (like iserver or open source liferay, joomla, etc.).
If you just need to protect your reports (and not only pdf files) then I recommend to deploy them with Tomcat (or any other java server) or as a portlet within any portal server (iserver or open source liferay). This solution will give you access to reports diplayed on the web with groups, users access, etc.
I hope this helps.
Kind regards,
Marcin K.

<p>If you want this functionality in Tomcat, you'll need to roll your own PDF emitter and incorporate similar code as referenced in the Stack Overflow article and reference to <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='
