Interview Questions

1. What is Authentication and Authorization? What is the difference between both?

Authentication is the process of verifying who you are. Logging on to a PC with a username and password is authentication.

Authorization is the process of verifying that you have access to something. Authorization is gaining access to a resource (e.g. directory on a hard disk) because the permissions configured on it allow you to access it.
