Topic 2 - One of the most popular concepts in the world of containers and Kubernetes is “Service Mesh” (projects like Istio). Let’s talk about the basics of what a service mesh does. Topic 3 - Service mesh provides routing capabilities, so let’s talk about where security comes into the picture. Topic 4 - Service mesh introduces a concept in Kubernetes where you deploy multiple containers in a pod, one the application and one the service-mesh proxy. Does security introduce yet another container/agent into a pod? Topic 5 - What sort of tools are available today for security professionals are service meshes are introduced into a container environment? Feedback?
