AD G Active Directory AAPAB / Alaska State:ide Payroll System Authentication (Greek! , from "authentes"#"author") is the act of establishing or confirming something (or someone) as authentic, that is, that claims made by or about the thing are true. Authentication of an object may mean confirming its provenance. Authentication of a person often consists of verifying their identity. $n computer security, authentication is the process of attempting to verify the identity of the sender of a communication such as a re%uest to log in. &he sender being authenticated may be a person using a computer, a computer itself or a computer program. 'ingle Authentication is the concept of a user verifying their identity once in order to gain authorization for all of the resources that they need to perform their job. Authorization - $n security engineering and computer security, authorization, is a part of the operating system that protects computer resources by only allowing those resources to be used by resource consumers that have been granted authority to use them.
