You can enable basic webauthentication on your webserver. If you use Apache as the webserver you can simply follow the instructions here: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/howto/auth.html
This is authentication against the webserver itself, the Wistar instance behind the webserver is still shared between all users that can authenticate.

I am able to bring up the apache server but the authentication is not working for me.

This is my server

ankur@ankur-virtual-machine:/etc/apache2/sites-enabled$ pwd

nkur@ankur-virtual-machine:/etc/apache2/sites-enabled$ ls -la

So, in which path I should call my password?

Please provide some directions?

@akher1 today Wistar has no authentication methods enabled as it is a lab tool only. The suggestion made by @Sidiox is by far the easiest way to provide some level of authentication.

I suspect you haven't created the file .htpasswd on /opt/wistar/wistar-master.

Alternatively, but far more complex, you can enable authentication in DJango. But this will require extra coding.
