| Hi Kimberley,
There are a couple of types of authentication/authorisation.
From the documentation
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...ncepts_dbzp.asp)
--
Microsoft® Content Management Server (MCMS) 2002 takes advantage of ASP.NET
technology by implementing the authentication provided by the .NET Framework
and Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS), giving you robust
authentication and security.
MCMS uses access control lists (ACL) to protect file system resources such
as resources and templates.
MCMS performs authorization using user rights groups to protect content
stored in the Content Repository, such as postings. For a complete
description of user rights groups in MCMS, see MCMS User Roles.
MCMS uses encrypted authentication tickets stored in cookies to identify
users that have been successfully authenticated.
For more information about authentication in MCMS 2002 including recommended
configurations and best practices, see Authenticating Users.

I hope this helps.
