mtls▌

Configures mutual TLS (mTLS) authentication between microservices using Python cryptography library for certificate generation and ssl module for TLS verification. Validates certificate chains, checks expiration, and audits mTLS deployment status. Use when implementing zero-trust service-to-service authentication.

Comprehensive guide to implementing mutual TLS for zero-trust service mesh communication.

Mutual TLS configuration for zero-trust service mesh communication with certificate management. \n \n Covers Istio, Linkerd, cert-manager, and SPIFFE/SPIRE implementations with ready-to-use YAML templates for strict mTLS enforcement, workload policies, and external service integration \n Includes certificate hierarchy design, automatic rotation strategies, and port-level mTLS control for mixed-protocol environments \n Provides debugging commands for TLS handshake issues, certificate expiry verif
