Prerequisites
- Concept Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) and Certificates Mutual TLS (mTLS) is an authentication mechanism in which both the client and the server present X.509 certificates to verify each other's identity during a TLS handshake. Developers use it on [SAP Business Technology Platform](https://help.sap.com/docs/btp/sap-business-technology-platform/b2746795de5543aca2eefa9de2424256?locale=en-US&state=PRODUCTION&version=Cloud) to establish secure, certificate-based trust between services and applications, going beyond standard one-way TLS where only the server is authenticated.
- Concept PEM (Privacy-Enhanced Mail) Certificate Format The concept name was not provided, so a precise definition cannot be produced. Based on the available sources, the closest identifiable concept is **Self-Managed X.509 Certificates** in SAP BTP: these are X.509 certificates that developers manage independently and configure using specific parameters to enable certificate-based authentication within SAP Business Technology Platform services. Developers use them, for example, to [authenticate to SAP HANA Cloud](https://help.sap.com/docs/btp/sap-business-technology-platform/5168df615064457eafe3e48e10a95665?locale=en-US&state=PRODUCTION&version=Cloud) instead of relying on platform-generated credentials.
