Authentication
The process of verifying the identity of a calling party, and a foundational element of API security models. Authentication alone, however, is insufficient to prevent legitimate credentials from being misused for large-scale data access.

On the platform side, it is usually necessary to provide unified identity authentication, data connectors, and an application catalog so that business staff can build applications on their own without crossing security red lines.
Admission management for AI agents requires higher-layer mechanisms such as identity authentication, access authorization and behavior auditing, rather than relying solely on User-Agent identification or IP blocking.
Authentication involves password storage (such as using salted hashes like bcrypt rather than plaintext), session management, and multi-factor authentication.
App Check and identity authentication solve different problems: authentication answers 'who are you,' while App Check answers 'did you come through my client'; the two usually need to be enabled at the same time.
