Zero Trust Security for Microservices: Implementing Service Mesh Solutions

Learn how to implement zero trust security, like service identity and service mesh, to ensure microservice security and compliance. Get best practices while enabling developers to focus on core logic. And see how a service mesh can achieve bank-grade security for established and emerging microservices patterns.

Achieve Bank-Grade Security while Empowering Developers

Zero trust security provides technology teams with a scalable way to make security fool-proof while managing a growing number of microservices and greater complexity. With microservices, we now have the opportunity to secure our applications and all of their services better than we ever did with monolithic codebases. Failure to do so can result in non-secure, exploitable, and non-compliant architectures that are only going to become more difficult to secure in the future.

In this eBook, you’ll learn:

  • Why we need zero trust security for scalable security for our applications and services
  • Best practices for service identity
  • How platform architects can specify rules and attributes to generate an identity on a per-service basis
  • How service mesh removes the burden of networking from developers, enabling them to focus more on core logic
Powering the API world

Increase developer productivity, security, and performance at scale with the unified platform for API management, AI gateways, service mesh, and ingress controller.
