authentication
(foldoc) | authentication
The verification of the identity of a person or
process. In a communication system, authentication verifies
that messages really come from their stated source, like the
signature on a (paper) letter. The most common form of
authentication is typing a user name (which may be widely
known or easily guessable) and a corresponding password that
is presumed to be known only to the individual being
authenticated. Another form of authentication is
biometrics.

AUTHENTICATION
(bouvier) | AUTHENTICATION, practice. An attestation made by a proper officer, by which
he certifies that a record is in due form of law, and that the person who
certifies it is the officer appointed by law to do so.
2. The Constitution of the U. S., art. 4, s. 1, declares, "Full faith
and credit shall be given in each state to the public acts, records and
judicial proceedings of every other state. And congress may by general laws
prescribe the manner in which such acts,, records and proceedings shall be
proved, and the effect thereof." The object of the authentication is to
supply all other proof of the record. The laws of the United States have
provided a mode of authentication of public records and office papers; these
acts are here transcribed.
3. By the Act of May 26, 1790, it is provided, "That the act of the
legislatures of the several states shall be authenticated by having the seal
of their respective states affixed thereto: That the records and judicial
proceedings of the courts of any state shall be proved or admitted, in any
other court within the United States, by the attestation of the clerk, and
the seal of the court annexed, if there be a seal, together with a
certificate of the judge, chief justice or presiding magistrate, as the case
may be, that the said attestation is in due form. And the said records and
judicial proceedings, authenticated as aforesaid, shall have such faith and
credit given to them, in every court within the United States, as they have,
by law or usage, in the courts of the state from whence the said records
are, or shall be taken."
4. The above act having provided only for one species of record, it was
necessary to pass the Act of March 27, 1804, to provide for other cases. By
this act it is enacted, Sec. 1. "That, from and after the passage of this
act, all records and exemplifications of office books, which are or may be
kept in any public office of any state, not appertaining to a court, shall
be proved or admitted in any other court or office in any other state, by
the attestation of the keeper of the said records or books, and the seal of
his office thereto annexed, if there be a seal, together with a certificate
of the presiding justice of the court of the county or district, as the case
may be, in which such office is or may be kept or of the governor, the
secretary of state, the chancellor or the keeper of the great seal of the
state, that the said attestation is in due form, and by the proper officer
and the said certificate, if given by the presiding justice of a court,
shall be further authenticated by the clerk or prothonotary of the said
court, who shall certify, under his hand and the seal of his office, that
the said presiding justice is duly commissioned and qualified; or if the
said certificate be given by the; governor, the secretary of state, the
chancellor or keeper of the great seal, it shall be under the great seal of
the state in which the said certificate is made. And the said records and
exemplifications, authenticated as aforesaid, shall have such faith and
credit given to them in every court and office within the United States, as
they have by law or usage in the courts or offices of the state from whence
the same are or shall be taken."
5.-2. That all the provisions of this act, and the act to which this
is, a supplement, shall apply, as well to the public acts, records, office
books, judicial proceedings, courts, and offices of the respective
territories of the United States, and countries subject to the jurisdiction
of the United States, as to the public acts, records, office books, judicial
proceedings, courts and offices of the several states."
6. The Act of May 8, 1792, s. 12, provides: That all the records and
proceedings of the court of appeals, heretofore appointed, previous to the
adoption of the present constitution, shall be deposited in the office of
the clerk of the supreme court of the United States, who is hereby
authorized and directed to give copies of all such records and proceedings,
to any person requiring and paying for the same, in like manner as copies of
the records and other proceedings of the said court are by law directed to
be given; which copies shall have like faith and credit as all other
proceedings of the said court."
7. By authentication is also understood whatever act is done either by
the party or some other person with a view of causing an instrument to be
known and identified as for example, the acknowledgment of a deed by the
grantor; the attesting a deed by witnesses. 2 Benth. on Ev. 449.

challenge-handshake authentication protocol
(foldoc) | Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol
CHAP
(CHAP) An
authentication scheme used by PPP servers to validate the
identity of the originator of the connection upon connection
or any time later.
CHAP applies a three-way handshaking procedure. After the
link is established, the server sends a "challenge" message to
the originator. The originator responds with a value
calculated using a one-way hash function. The server checks
the response against its own calculation of the expected hash
value. If the values match, the authentication is
acknowledged; otherwise the connection is usually terminated.
CHAP provides protection against playback attack through the
use of an incrementally changing identifier and a variable
challenge value. The authentication can be repeated any time
while the connection is open limiting the time of exposure to
any single attack, and the server is in control of the
frequency and timing of the challenges. As a result, CHAP
provides greater security then PAP.
CHAP is defined in RFC 1334.

keyed-hashing message authentication
(foldoc) | Keyed-Hashing Message Authentication
HMAC
(HMAC) A mechanism for message
authentication using cryptographic hash functions. HMAC
can be used with any iterative cryptographic hash function,
e.g., MD5, SHA-1, in combination with a secret shared key.
The cryptographic strength of HMAC depends on the properties
of the underlying hash function.
[RFC 2104].

password authentication protocol
(foldoc) | Password Authentication Protocol
(PAP) An authentication scheme used by PPP
servers to validate the identity of the originator of the
connection.
PAP applies a two-way handshaking procedure. After the link
is established the originator sends an id-password pair to the
server. If authentication succeeds the server sends back an
acknowledgement; otherwise it either terminates the connection
or gives the originator another chance.
PAP is not a strong authentication method. Passwords are sent
over the circuit "in the clear" and there is no protection
against playback or repeated "trial and error" attacks. The
originator is in total control of the frequency and timing of
the attempts. Therefore, any server that can use a stronger
authentication method, such as CHAP, will offer to negotiate
that method prior to PAP. The use of PAP is appropriate,
however, if a plaintext password must be available to
simulate a login at a remote host.
PAP is defined in RFC 1334.

pluggable authentication module
(foldoc) | Pluggable Authentication Module
PAM
(PAM) The new industry standard integrated login
framework. PAM is used by system entry components, such as
the Common Desktop Environment's dtlogin, to authenticate
users logging into a Unix system. It provides pluggability
for a variety of system-entry services. PAM's ability to
stack authentication modules can be used to integrate
login with different authentication mechanisms such as
RSA, DCE and Kerberos, and thus unify login mechanisms.
PAM can also integrate smart card authentication.

Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM)", Oct 1995].
