01 // Executive_Summary

Moving beyond perimeter-based security, this whitepaper details the 'Never Trust, Always Verify' protocol within microservice meshes. It covers mTLS, dynamic identity issuance, and just-in-time access controls.

METRIC_A:IDENTITY-FIRST

02 // Architecture_Topology

A sidecar proxy pattern is employed to intercept all east-west traffic, validating identity tokens against an OIDC provider before routing.

  const token = await verifyIdentity(req.headers.authorization);
  if (!token.isValid) throw new UnauthorizedError('SYSTEM_ACCESS_DENIED');
