In Chapter 5, I covered one of the key and fundamental aspects of security: authentication. Authentication is the process of discovering the identity of a user and verifying the same through validating the user-supplied credentials against an authority. The credential can be a knowledge factor based on what a user knows, such as a password, or an ownership factor based on what a user owns, such as a security token, or an inherence factor based on what the user is, such as fingerprints. The focus of this chapter is on the knowledge factor.
