This document uses the term "mutual TLS" as defined by {{RFC8705}}. The shortened form "MTLS" is used to mean the same thing.

For brevity, the term "signature" on its own is used in this document to refer to both digital signatures (which use asymmetric cryptography) and keyed MACs (which use symmetric cryptography).

The qualified term "digital signature" refers specifically to the output of an asymmetric cryptographic signing operation.
