    摘要: Various methods, systems, and use cases for securely managing, generating, and controlling access to keys in a service mesh are discussed herein. In various examples, key protection operations include service mesh signing key protection and service mesh communication key protection, for a secure transport session between services such as conducted with mutual transport layer security (mTLS). For instance, such key protection operations may be used to establish communications between the service host and another entity within the service mesh, in a secure transport session, based on use of a private key (secured using a confidential computing technology) in a secure enclave or other secure compute environment to sign one or more keys for the secure transport session.
