Digest Authentication is a security protocol used to protect web communications by ensuring that passwords are not transmitted over the network in plaintext. It uses a challenge-response mechanism where the server sends a nonce to the client, and the client responds with a hashed value of the password and nonce, thereby preventing replay attacks and eavesdropping.
