    Authentication : An authentication system is how you identify yourself to the computer. The goal behind an authentication system is to verify that the user is actually who they say they are. Authorization : Once the system knows who the user is through authentication, authorization is how the system decides what the user can do. A good example of this is using group permissions or the difference between a normal user and the administrator on the system.

    Authentication is to identify who you are and Authorization is what you can access.
