|4||Authentication, single sign-on (SSO)
- Authentication. The process of verifying one's identity. That process is commonly paired with identification, which is the process of indicating one's identity. For instance, the process of issuing one's passport is an act of identification, while the process of verification of one's passport at a checkpoint is an act of authentication is the process of verifying that identity. When a system user provides the system with his or her username, the system requests its database whether that user is identified in this system and, if so, with what password, and authenticate that user based on whether the password matches the one in the database.
- Single sign-on (SSO). The mode of authentication that allows a user to log in with a single username and password to any of several related, yet independent, software systems, and go through any of those systems without additional logging in.
