A mutual authentication apparatus in a Downloadable Conditional Access System (DCAS) includes an announce protocol processor to authenticate SecurityAnnounce information using an Authentication Proxy (AP) and to transmit the authenticated SecurityAnnounce information to a Secure Micro (SM), a keying protocol processor to relay KeyRequest information and KeyResponse information between a Trusted Authority (TA) and the SM in response to the SecurityAnnounce information, a decryption unit to decrypt the KeyResponse information using the SM, an authentication protocol processor to determine whether a first encryption key of the KeyResponse information is identical to a second encryption key generated by the AP, and a download protocol processor to control DownloadInfo to be transmitted from the AP to the SM, the DownloadInfo permitting the SM to download SM Client Image information.
