Implement TLS for gRPC telemetry #35

Open sgaragan opened 3 months ago

sgaragan commented 3 months ago

As security requirements become more stringent, the need to implement transport encryption becomes more important. Having the ability to support TLS-based gRPC connections will allow companies to meet requirements being set by corporate security teams to protect all data on the wire. The support should be for TLS and mTLS.

The specifics for gRPC can be found at https://grpc.io/docs/guides/auth/
