!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] [Authentication] is when the [credentials] were received without the [Authentication] [entity] being present.

[{$pagename}] [Authentication] is when the [user] was NOT prompted to provide [Credentials]



!! 
Determination of [{$pagename}] or [Interactive] [Authentication] may be difficult to establish.


[Windows Logon Types] and/or [Authentication Method Reference Values] may be helpful.

!! [Microsoft Windows] [{$pagename}] [Windows Logon]
[{$pagename}] [authentication] can only be used after an [interactive] [authentication] has taken place. During [{$pagename}] authentication, the user does not input logon data, instead, previously established [credentials] are used.

[{$pagename}] [authentication] is performed when an application uses the [Security Support Provider Interface] ([SSPI]) and a security package to establish a secure [network] connection. 

[{$pagename}] [authentication] is the [Authentication Mechanism] at work when a user connects to multiple machines on a [network] without having to re-enter [Credentials] for each machine. 

!! [{$pagename}] [Examples]
* Often this is when the [Authentication] [entity] did NOT typing the [password] at the keyboard.
* [{$pagename}] [Authentication] may be when the [Credential] is passed over the [network]
