As we know, if we use the message security of BasicHttpbinding, we should set up the certificate both in the client and the server. In addition, we should also establish a certificate trust relationship between the server and the client.
One more thing needs to note is, different from the authentication mode of the transport layer security, we need to set a default service certificate (non-client certificate, use the trusted server certificates for signing messages) on the client side.
So anyway, the below configuration could achieve the same goal that authenticates the client with a certificate. please refer to the below configuration.

<customBinding>
    <binding name="TehRealBinding">
        <textMessageEncoding />
        <security authenticationMode="MutualCertificate" />
        <httpTransport />
    </binding>
</customBinding>
