Hello, I encountered a problem in the process of learning;

what is the difference between "auth authN authZ" ;

I still don’t know the difference and function of the three;

This question is too general and it's not related to the project. Please, next time search on internet.

The only thing that I can say is that we recently renamed the mainflux service authn into auth. This service will ensure AuthN and AuthZ (when policies will be ready).
