[Django]-What is the difference between Authorization and Authentication in Django?

7👍

Straight out of the Django Documentation:

The Django authentication system handles both authentication and authorization. Briefly, authentication verifies a user is who they claim to be, and authorization determines what an authenticated user is allowed to do. Here the term authentication is used to refer to both tasks.
