The process by which a process verifies that a person or entity is the same one it communicated with previously. Identification is in general faster than authentication and does not require interaction with the user. In Kerberos, for example, the authentication server authenticates a user and issues a credential (called a ticket-granting ticket), which can be used later for identification so that reauthentication is not necessary.
