I'm not sure what you're asking about with regard to "basic html posts".

As for security generally, you can handle security the same way you
would with any other sort of web content. You can use web server
authentication (Basic, or any other auth scheme supported by your
prospective clients and by the actual web server) or you can force the
client to acquire a token via a login service (instead of a login
form). Basic authentication over HTTPS is adequate for most things..
