Many enterprises are either evaluating a service mesh or are have moved some of the service mesh enabled workloads to production.
One big security challenge enterprises are facing is the need to anchor the identity of workloads to the enterprise CA managed by crypto teams.
The crypto teams traditionally cater to non cloud native environments and are increasingly facing a lot of platform engineers who work in cloud native environments.

This session aims to cover -
- How can platform engineers work with crypto teams ?
- How can platform engineers manage TLS certs at scale for workloads especially when these certs are required to 1) identify a workload 2) use this identity to authenticate to other workloads
- Ensure that all the workloads are anchored to the enterprise CA for compliance.

This talk will go walkthrough the best practices and demonstrate how to setup your mesh workloads for stronger authentication by anchoring it to organization’s enterprise Certificate Authority.
