· Método asimétrico de autenticación
· Método simétrico de autenticación
Método
empleado para demostrar la identidad de una entidad. La calidad o fortaleza del
método está fuertemente ligada a la criptografía subyacente. En términos
generales, se considera superior un método basado en criptografía asimétrica
frente a métodos basados en secretos compartidos.
Method for
demonstrating knowledge of a secret. The quality of the authentication method,
its strength is determined by the cryptographic basis of the key distribution
service on which it is based. A symmetric key based method, in which both
entities share common authentication information, is considered to be a weaker
method than an asymmetric key based method, in which not all the authentication
information is shared by both entities.
