Class CIM_AuthenticationService
extends CIM_SecurityService

CIM_AuthenticationService verifies users' identities through some means. These services are decomposed into a subclass that provides credentials to users and a subclass that provides for the verification of the validity of a credential and, perhaps, the appropriateness of its use for access to target resources. The persistent state information used from one such verification to another is maintained in an instance of Identity class.
