Identification and Permission Management::Identification and Authentication

Identification and Authentication Aggregate Function consists in identifying, and potentially authenticating, a person whatever his/her role. <br/>Authentication is not systematic but may be required for sensitive actions according to security matters.<br/>Identification and authentication means may vary depending on the interaction channel. For automatic interaction channels, the means of identification and authentication are highly discriminant and should return at more one result (usually using personal credentials). For human interaction channels, on the other hand, a series of information may be necessary to identify and authenticate a person (for instance asking their name and first name for identification followed by birth date and birth place for authentication).<br/>
