Enabling end-to-end encryption with Amazon VPC Lattice TLS Passthrough
Networking & Content Delivery Blog
The article discusses Amazon VPC Lattice's new TLS Passthrough feature, which enables end-to-end encryption between services without terminating TLS within VPC Lattice.
- Allows users to maintain end-to-end authentication and encryption using existing TLS/mTLS implementations
- Supports routing traffic based on Server Name Indicator (SNI) in TLS connections
- Eliminates the need for alternative connectivity solutions like Transit Gateway or self-managed proxies
- Provides two primary use cases: end-to-end encryption for web applications and mutual TLS (mTLS) authentication
- Supports transparent forwarding of TLS sessions without handling or verifying certificates
The feature simplifies service connectivity by enabling direct, encrypted communication between services across different VPCs without decrypting traffic in transit.
