 #gRPC Authentication support
 
-gRPC is designed to plug-in a number of authentication mechanisms. This document provides a quick overview 
-of the various auth mechanisms supported, discusses the API with some examples, and concludes with a discussion of extensibility. More documentation and examples are coming soon!

 ## Supported auth mechanisms
 
 ###SSL/TLS
-gRPC has SSL/TLS integration and promotes the use of SSL/TLS to authenticate the server,
-and encrypt all the data exchanged between the client and the server. Optional
-mechanisms are available for clients to provide certificates to accomplish mutual
-authentication.

 ###OAuth 2.0
-gRPC provides a generic mechanism (described below) to attach metadata to requests
-and responses. This mechanism can be used to attach OAuth 2.0 Access Tokens to
-RPCs being made at a client. Additional support for acquiring Access Tokens while
-accessing Google APIs through gRPC is provided for certain auth flows, demonstrated
-through code examples below.

 ## API
-To reduce complexity and minimize API clutter, gRPC works with a unified concept of
-a Credentials object. Users construct gRPC credentials using corresponding bootstrap
-credentials (e.g., SSL client certs or Service Account Keys), and use the
-credentials while creating a gRPC channel to any server. Depending on the type of
-credential supplied, the channel uses the credentials during the initial SSL/TLS
-handshake with the server, or uses  the credential to generate and attach Access
-Tokens to each request being made on the channel.
