Using istio to secure kubernetes traffic (clusterIP)

11/22/2019

I have microservices architecture running on kubernetes cluster. Communication between services is over HTTP protocol (clusterIP service type). I'd like to make communication over services via HTTPS. Apparently we can do such things with Istio, but I cannot understand how. These example show NGINX running via HTTPS, but my services runs via HTTP. Is there any way to proxy HTTPS traffic to port 80 using Istio ?
