Explore the Istio and tls-operators cryptographic information

[orfeas-k]

Context

SSDL - Cryptography epic

What needs to get done

Pods in user-namespaces have Istio sidecars. There’s mTLS between Pods in user namespaces (between them, and IngressGateway). Questions we need to answer:

• For mTLS what libraries are used by sidecars?
• Is istiod distributing certificates to the sidecar charms?
• Has the Service Mesh team information about this?
• Is Istio-pilot charm.py using any crypto libraries?

Definition of Done

We have enough information in order to document istio work with cryptographic libraries.
