TDGSS MutualAuthentication Property | Teradata Vantage - MutualAuthentication - Analytics Database - Teradata Vantage

The MutualAuthentication property tells the client whether to request that the server authenticate itself to the client. You can use mutual authentication to avoid man-in-the-middle attacks, which could allow the attacker to divert a network transmission to an unauthenticated third party.
