So, you've got these cool gRPC microservices, right? They're awesome for communication, but let's be real, setting them up securely can be a bit tricky. You've got to deal with stuff like key distribution, certificate management, and all that jazz.
But fear not! This talk is all about making it easier for you. We'll walk you through some simple yet effective ways to lock down your gRPC microservices without resorting to old-school solutions like JWT.
We'll chat about things like how to handle certificates, when they should expire, and how to reload them without breaking a sweat. Plus, we'll show you some neat tricks for making sure your services are talking to each other securely.
Forget about the headaches of managing JWT tokens. We'll show you why modern solutions like mTLS are where it's at. With real-life examples and stories from the trenches, you'll leave this talk ready to secure your gRPC microservices like a pro, no fancy jargon required!
