Authentication is the process of verifying the identity of a user or system. It's a way to ensure that the entity requesting access is who they claim to be. Authentication is one of the core attributes of a Kubernetes API gateway. As the main access point from the outside world to your application and services, your gateway must be well protected from bad actors and unauthorized access.
