Généralement l’authentification est précédée d’une identification qui permet à cette entité de se faire reconnaître du système par un élément dont on l’a doté. En résumé, s’identifier c’est communiquer son identité, s’authentifier c’est apporter la preuve de son identité.
Georgia
In the authentication process, a certain attribute of a user or system certifies authorized access to such systems or data, for example, a key (see public key cryptography), a smart card, a password, the user name or even biometrical traits (fingerprint). A higher security level can be achieved by the combination of different traits used for authentication.
Hong Kong
Authentication: A process or method to identify and to prove the identity of a user/party who attempts to send message or access data. [7]

Costituisce spesso una condizione per accedere ai sistemi informativi e di comunicazione. A tal fine vengono frequentemente impiegati metodi che associano vari strumenti di riconoscimento, quali dati biometrici, tesserini identificativi, password, etc.

Authentication is what happens when you log into a system. It compares your credentials (often user name and password) with a previously established known value such that the system can know that you are who you say you are. For sensitive systems, there is a trend toward using two factor authentication (2FA) which essentially means that users must supply two different secrets, usually one is a password (something they know) and the other is a pin supplied via text (verifying something they have).
