Overview
Encrypt traffic to HTTPS load balancers using TLS certificates.
Rationale
Encrypting traffic between users and your Kubernetes workload is fundamental to protecting data sent over the web.
Audit
Your load balancer vendor can provide details on auditing the certificates and policies required to utilize TLS.
Remediation guidance
Your load balancer vendor can provide details on configuring HTTPS with TLS.

Multiple Remediation Paths
SERVICE-WIDE (RECOMMENDED when many resources are affected): Apply organization/tenant-level guardrails and baseline policies for the entire platform.
ASSET-LEVEL: Fix only the affected resources identified by this control.
PREVENTIVE: Add preventive policy checks to CI/CD and periodic posture scans.
References for Service-Wide Patterns
- Platform policy/governance and preventive control patterns should be applied tenant-wide where supported.
