How does it handle certificate rotation?

The skill provides templates for cert-manager to automate certificate issuance and rotation, along with CLI commands to check expiry and force updates.

Does this help with compliance audits?

Yes, it provides the implementation patterns required for the encryption-in-transit components of standards like PCI-DSS, HIPAA, and SOC2.

Is it safe to move directly to strict mTLS mode?

The skill follows best practices by recommending an initial PERMISSIVE mode during migration to avoid breaking existing traffic before transitioning to STRICT.

What service meshes does this skill support?

It includes configuration templates for popular service meshes like Istio and Linkerd, as well as SPIFFE/SPIRE for identity management.

Implements secure, zero-trust service-to-service communication using mutual TLS across cloud-native environments.

Acerca de

This skill provides a comprehensive framework for configuring and managing mutual TLS (mTLS) in microservices architectures. It offers production-ready templates for service meshes like Istio and Linkerd, identity management via SPIFFE/SPIRE, and automated certificate lifecycles using cert-manager. By providing standardized implementation patterns and debugging workflows, it helps engineering teams enforce zero-trust networking, satisfy strict compliance requirements like PCI-DSS and HIPAA, and eliminate the risks of unencrypted internal traffic.
