    Authentication and authorization terms are often used interchangeably by many, but they are two completely different concepts. Both are crucial in ensuring the security of resources in any application or system. Please comment down below what would you prefer for your organization Authentication or Authorization ???

    There is nothing that an organization can prefer. Both are very important and should be added step by step. i.e., there is no sense in having authorization without authentication. Authentication is a prerequisite for authorization. Authentication is the process of verifying the identity of a user or system. After authentication, authorization is for granting access to resources based on the user’s authentication. Authentication is the process of verifying who you are, while authorization is the process of verifying what you are allowed to do.
