Authentication and Authorization

Authentication and authorization are two basic concepts that have vital importance in terms of information security. Authentication is the process of proving the authenticity of a user's declared identity. The user usually provides credentials such as username and password, and the system verifies this information. This process allows the user to prove their identity in the system and verify that they are a real user. Authorization is a process that takes place after authentication. In this process, the user is granted or denied access to certain resources (files, databases, network resources, etc.). Authorization is accomplished by specifying the user's access rights, assigning roles, and setting permissions as needed. In this way, users can only access the resources they need and unauthorized access is prevented.
