Description
Authentication service is a security service that verifies an identity claimed by or for a system entity.
Key Concepts
A system entity is an active element of a system, e.g. an automated process, a subsystem, a person or group of persons that incorporates a specific set of capabilities.
A Person is a system entity, usually a human individual, that makes use of system resources, primarily for application purposes as opposed to system management purposes.
An Agent is a non-human system entity.
A Subject represents a grouping of related information for a single entity, such as a person. Such information includes the Subject's identities as well as its security-related attributes (credentials such as passwords and cryptographic keys, for example). Subjects may potentially have multiple identities.
Identity is a digital representation of a set of (verify able) claims (e.g. my name is "Scott Tiger," I am a student of UC Berkeley, I have a driver license issued by the State of California) made by one subject about itself.
A Principal represents an identity. A principal can be authenticated.

Authentication process
The Authentication process is the process of verifying an identity claimed by or for a system entity. It consists of two steps :
Identification step: Presenting an identifier to the security system.
Verification step: Presenting or generating authentication information that corroborates the binding between the entity and the identifier.
Let's describe a typical authentication scenario using widely used security terms. Following are our assumptions.
Assumptions
A system entity (e.g. a user with Berkeley CalNet ID) has/is already enrolled with at least one identity provider (e.g. CalNet).
System entity could be human or non-human.
An identity provider is expected to provide authentication services.
How the enrollment or signup with the identity provider happens is out of scope for the Authentication Service. It could be part of registration or account set up process of Collection Space or elsewhere.
A service provider (or relying party, e.g. a Collection Space service) relies on the identity provider to identify and verify the identity of the system entity
A service provider could rely on one or more such identity provider for authentication services.
A system entity (e.g. a user with Berkeley Cal Net ID) has/is already enrolled with at least one identity provider (e.g. Cal Net).
