This walks you through setting up mutual TLS for service-to-service communication in a zero-trust architecture. You get practical templates for Istio, Linkerd, and SPIFFE/SPIRE, plus concrete debugging commands for when the TLS handshake inevitably breaks at 3am. The guide covers certificate hierarchies, rotation strategies, and migration patterns from permissive to strict mode. Honestly, it's more of a reference doc than a conversational skill, but if you're implementing mTLS in Kubernetes and need working YAML plus actual troubleshooting commands rather than theory, it consolidates the essentials in one place. The cert-manager integration examples are solid.
