Istio generates a variety of telemetry data to help monitor and understand service communication within a Kubernetes cluster. We will explore how to leverage these signals to enhance network security within the Kubernetes environment.

Key takeaways will include:
* Comparing the telemetry signals against your organization's security baselines to ensure traffic conforms to established standards.
* Generating the necessary allow and deny rules to secure your cluster by addressing any non-conformant traffic effectively.
* Strategies platform teams can use to automate the above process, enabling them to efficiently recommend policies and address non-conformant traffic across different teams running Istio.
