Abstract
A system and method for performing mutual authentication verifies a username and a password of a handheld device by a server, and verifies an identity of the server by the handheld device if the handheld device passes the username and password verification. The system and method further verifies an identity of the handheld device by the server if the identity of the server is valid, and gives an access authority to the handheld device if the identity of the handheld device is valid.
