Amber Service Mesh | Nephio SIG Security started discussing secure software supply chain and also showed a demo, leveraging Kubearmor for security access. In the KubeConn, there were some discussions around amber service mesh (a.k.a. sidecarless service mesh). For NF deployment and management, sidecarless service mesh could be a good option, I think. There were some use cases from MITRE. ONAP SECCOM position for this to be further discussed. Nephio SIG member made a demo with Kubearmor. No need to configure sidecar for each network function. Amber Service Mesh seems to be not yet production ready. Kubearmor was DARPA project, it is used as part of superblueprint. It has policy building and administration function. Enforcement is done by using eBPF. Presentation could be provided to SECCOM. | started | Muddasar Ahmed to check with MITRE colleagues on possible presentation for SECCOM on Kuberamor. | |
