what is the good answer for authentication and
authorization?

Answer Posted / shiva

Authentication:

This is the process to test whether the specific user is
allowed to use or login to the application.



But in Authorization, we test whether the specific user
is allowed to access some controls or features of the
system/application/software. Eg: In an office automation
tool, every employee can login to the application, but only
accounts manager can access accounts related features, only
HR manager or executive can access company inforamtion.
