System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a comprehensive guide to implementing and managing mutual TLS (mTLS) for secure, zero-trust service-to-service communication within your infrastructure.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Zero-Trust Implementation: Secure internal network traffic, ensuring only authenticated services can communicate.
  • Certificate Management: Guidance on certificate hierarchy, rotation, and integration with tools like cert-manager.
  • Debugging: Tools and techniques for diagnosing mTLS handshake failures and verifying configurations.
  • Use Case: Securely connect microservices in a Kubernetes cluster using Istio, ensuring that only authorized services can exchange data, even within the cluster's network.

Quick Start

Configure Istio to enforce strict mTLS across all services in the 'istio-system' namespace.
