Authentication is deciding whether the user has permission to access the system.

Autorization is verifying that the user has permission to do the operation that he is requesting.

Authentication


An authentication system is how you identify yourself to the computer. The
goal behind an authentication system is to verify that the user is actually who
they say they are.  There are many ways of authenticating a user. Like
Password based authentication
Device based authentication
Biometric Authentication


Authorization


Once the system knows who the user is through authentication, authorization
is how the system decides what the user can do.   A good example of
this is using group permissions or the difference between a normal user and the
super-user on a UNIX system.

Authorization is a permission/right that you can involve/handle any perticular matter of the house.
