Mutual authentication is a process in which both parties involved in a transaction authenticate each other’s identities. It is a security measure that helps to protect against man-in-the-middle attacks. In a mutual authentication process, each party verifies the other’s identity using a combination of factors such as passwords, digital certificates, biometrics, and two-factor authentication. Mutual authentication is commonly used for online banking, e-commerce transactions, and secure remote access.
