How does mTLS work?
In standard TLS connections, which are used to secure online banking, for example, only the server has a key pair consisting of a public and private key. The client merely verifies the server's TLS certificate to exchange data via the encrypted connection.

How are the certificates provided?
The certificates required for mutual authentication are provided by a central Certificate Authority (CA). In an enterprise context the CA is usually operated by the respective company itself. For this, the company requires a "root" TLS certificate. In contrast to conventional TLS connections, as are common on the free Internet, no external certification authority is therefore required here – the company can create the root certificate itself.
