Nearly every language, server, database, client (and more!) already offers battle-tested TLS/SSL support. mTLS lets you replace countless fragile and frustrating bits of security infrastructure with a single consistent solution that's easier to understand, easier to scale, and easier to operate.
mTLS eliminates the need to use network boundaries, VPNs, and IP whiltelists to provide access to your applications. There is usually no need to do anything more than configure the tools and libraries you're already using in your applications to speak TLS.
Using proven cryptography and mTLS your applications talk directly to each other rather than bogging down inside a network tunnel or calling back to a central authority. Proven inside the largest distributed systems, mTLS makes it easy to scale your infrastructure securely.
