Both of sentences you provided mean the same thing: permission to authenticate and authorize.

Both are technical phrases in IT.

Authentication means identification of something or someone, acquiring and assuring the identity of something. It's like asking for a password, a biometric attribute or a statement by two witnesses.

Authorisation means granting access for something to a (usually) identified entity. It can be a permission for a person to access a building, a firewall entry letting a machine access a service or a right for an identified account to post blog entries.

  • I know this means. I just want to know whether authentication and authorization permissions means authentication permissions and authorization permissions.
