The Authentication Agent is an AppleScript that automatically enters an administrative password, saving time and increasing convenience during authentication processes.
What sets Authentication Agent apart from a simple text shortcut is that it is able to not only type in your password, but also click "OK" in the dialog box in most instances. This is something that isn't always possible with text shortcuts that just end with "return" or "enter."
In addition to this, using Authentication Agent ensures that your password isn't stored in clear text on your computer's hard drive. So, you can have both convenience and security when using this software.
