- What Is TLS (Transport Layer Security) in Linux Security?by Brittany Day on February 7, 2026 at 4:01 am
Most Linux outages that get labeled as ”security issues” are not breaches. They are TLS failures that sit quietly until a renewal expires, a client updates, or a service starts refusing connections for reasons that look unrelated at first. By the time users notice, traffic has already stopped, and the only clue is a vague handshake error buried in a log file.

I keep seeing Rust show up in places it never could have five years ago. Kernel-adjacent tools. Security agents. Parsers that used to be a pile of careful C and comments warning you not to touch anything. It’s not because developers suddenly got more patient or because everyone decided memory safety was fun. The cost equation changed, and AI coding is a big part of why.
