Authentication is a critical aspect of any application, ensuring that only authorized users can access sensitive information or perform actions. Here are some common methods and concepts in authentication:
- Username and Password: The most traditional method, where users enter a username and password to gain access.
- Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Adds an extra layer of security by requiring two methods of authentication.
- OAuth: An authorization framework that allows third-party applications to access server resources on behalf of a resource owner.
