 # Authentication 
 
-Your API key must be used with any interaction with the Speechmatics API to authenticate to the service. Any interaction without this key will receive a `HTTP 401 - Unauthorized` response.
+Speechmatics offers a flexible authentication system to allow you to authenticate your requests with our API whilst protecting valuable customer data.
 
 It is recommended that you store and provide access to the API key on the principle of least privilege. If you believe that your key has been compromised, please reach out to [Support](https://support.speechmatics.com).
