Mutual TLS

Mutual TLS

📖 定义

mTLS is bidirectional TLS authentication where not only does the server prove its identity to the client, but the client also proves its identity to the server. It provides stronger security guarantees than one-way TLS and is an important component of zero-trust architecture.

🔗 在 Higress 中的应用
