> Cassandra currently doesn't have any certificate based authenticator for both 
> client connections and internode connections. If one wants to use certificate 
> based authentication protocol like TLS, in which clients send their 
> certificates for the TLS handshake, we can leverage the information from the 
> client certificate to identify a client. Using this authentication mechanism 
> one can avoid the pain of password generations, sharing and rotation.
> Introducing following certificate based mTLS authenticators for internode and 
> client connections
> MutualTlsAuthenticator (client authentication)
> MutualTlsInternodeAuthenticator (internode authentication)
> MutualTlsWithPasswordFallbackAuthenticator (for optional mode operation for 
> client authentication)
> An implementation of MutualTlsCertificateValidator called 
> SpiffeCertificateValidator whose identity is SPIFFE that is embedded in SAN 
> of the client certificate. One can implement their own CertificateValidator 
> to match their needs and configure it in Cassandra.yaml
