The following information is about Authentication.
Authentication Defined
The process of identifying an individual, usually based on a username and password. In security systems, authentication is distinct from authorization , which is the process of giving individuals access to system objects based on their identity. Authentication merely ensures that the individual is who he or she claims to be, but says nothing about the access rights of the individual.
This definition is in context to Computer Hardware. See more contextual defintions for Authentication.
