| Aspect | Description |
|---|---|
| Encryption | Service meshes encrypt communications between services using industry-standard protocols such as TLS or SSL. Default enablement by Istio ensures confidentiality and tamper-proofing of data transmitted between services |
| Authentication | Service meshes use standard authentication protocols like OIDC or JWT to authenticate clients and services. Ensures that only authorized entities can communicate with your services. Linkerd supports OIDC authentication out of the box |
| Authorization | Service meshes allow definition of fine-grained access control policies based on attributes like user identity, service name, or request headers. Reduces risk of unwanted interactions or data exposure by limiting services' interaction capabilities within well-defined boundaries |
