Java org.springframework.security.core.Authentication is an interface provided by the Spring Security framework, specifically designed for handling user authentication and authorization in Java applications. It represents an authenticated principal (user) and encapsulates their credentials and other relevant information, including granted authorities or roles. The Authentication object is typically created during the login process and is used throughout the application to determine the user's access rights to protected resources. It also allows for additional user-related functionalities such as remembering the user's identity for subsequent requests or handling various authentication mechanisms like form-based login or OAuth.
