Selected Answer: B
Authentication is the process that verifies a user’s identity by checking the credentials they provide (like a password, token, or certificate) against a trusted source. While identification involves stating who the user is, authentication is what proves that claim, ensuring that the access request is legitimate.

I think Authorization is more likely the correct answer. You can be authenticated in a system, but you need authorization to access the data/application, which is another layer of security.
