Authentication of a machine is the authorization of automated communication from person-to-machine (M2M) by verification of digital certificates or digital credentials.

Digital certificates used in machine permits are like a digital passport that provides a trustworthy identification for secure information exchange on the Web. Digital credentials are similar to types of ID and password issued by the machine.

Machine authentication is used to allow machine interactions on cable and wireless networks in order to allow autonomous interaction and information sharing between computers and other machines. Machine authentication operations can be carried out with simple devices such as sensors and infrastructure meters.
