In Part 1 and Part 2 of this blog series, we covered securing YugabyteDB through the database’s internal RPC and SQL protocols using the TLS encryption protocol. In this post, we explore how to secure communication between CQL clients and the CQL-compatible YCQL query interface of YugabyteDB, as part of the client-to-server encryption in transit setup.

While vertical scalability works to a certain extent, the horizontally scalable API layer can scale beyond the capacity of a single machine.
When it comes to high availability,
