Authentication is used by a system when the system
needs to know exactly who is accessing their information
or site. Authentication is used by a client when the client
needs to know that the server is system it claims to be.
5. • In authentication, the user has to prove its
identity to the system.
• Usually, authentication by a server entails
the use of a user name and password.
• Authentication does not determine what
tasks the individual can do or what files the
individual can see. Authentication merely
identifies and verifies who the user is.

Authorization is a process by which a system determines if the
client has permission to use a resource or access a file.
8. • Authorization is usually coupled with authentication so that the
system has some concept of who the client is that is requesting
access.
• The type of authentication required for authorization may vary;
passwords may be required in some cases but not in others.
• In some cases, there is no authorization; any user may be use a
resource or access a file simply by asking for it.
