Other uses Intelligibility disambiguation Intelligibility In philosophy, intelligibility is what can be comprehended by the human mind . The intelligible method is thought thinking itself, or the human mind reflecting. Plato referred to the intelligible realm of mathematics , Intelligible form forms , first principles , logical Deductive reasoning deduction , and the dialectical method . The intelligible realm of thought thinking about thought does not necessarily require any visual images, sensual impressions, and material causes for the contents of mind. Descartes referred to this method of thought thinking about itself, without the possible illusions of the senses. Kant made similar claims about A priori and a posteriori a priori knowledge. A priori knowledge is claimed to be independent of the content of experience. Usage The object philosophy objects or concepts that have intelligibility may be called intelligible . There may be a distinction between everything that is intelligible and everything that is visible, called the intelligible world and the visible world in e.g. the analogy of the divided line .

Mutual authentication or two way authentication sometimes written as 2WAY authentication refers to two parties authenticating each other suitably. In technology terms, it refers to a client or user authenticating themselves to a server and that server authenticating itself to the user in such a way that both parties are assured of the others identity. When describing online authentication processes, mutual authentication is often referred to as website to user authentication, or site to user authentication. Typically, this is done for a client process and a server process without user interaction. Mutual Secure Sockets Layer SSL provides the same things as SSL, with the addition of authentication and non repudiation of the client authentication, using digital signatures. However, due to issues with complexity, cost, logistics, and effectiveness, most web applications are designed so they do not require client side certificates. This creates an opening for a man in the middle attack , in particular for online banking. As the Financial Services Technology Consortium put it in its January 2005 report, Better institution to customer authentication would prevent attackers from successfully impersonating financial institutions to steal customers account credentials and better customer to institution authentication would prevent attackers from successfully impersonating customers to financial institutions in order to perpetrate fraud.

nofootnotes date March 2011 Mutual credit is a type of alternative currency in which the currency used in a transaction can be created at the time of the transaction. Typically this involves keeping track of each individual s credit or debit balance. Although the effect is like a loan, no interest is charged, and since mutual credit allows for trading and cancelling balances with others, debts can be paid off indirectly. Advantages and disadvantages One economic advantage of mutual credit is that the currency supply is self regulating the money supply expands and contracts as needed, without any managing authority. The availability of interest free loans is a great advantage to members of the system.
