Service Mesh Security

Service Mesh Security

Definition

Service mesh security refers to the security capabilities provided by a service mesh layer — including automatic mTLS between services, fine-grained traffic authorization policies, and observability for east-west traffic. Meshes like Istio, Linkerd, and Consul Connect handle certificate lifecycle management, enforce per-service access policies, and provide audit logs of service-to-service communication.
