We highly recommend you keep OkHttp up-to-date. As with auto-updating web browsers, staying current
with HTTPS clients is an important defense against potential security problems. [We
track][tls_history] the dynamic TLS ecosystem and adjust OkHttp to improve connectivity and
security.

OkHttp uses your platform's built-in TLS implementation. On Java platforms OkHttp also supports

- [istio/ztunnel](https://github.com/istio/ztunnel). The repository contains the Rust implementation of the ztunnel
component of Ambient mesh.

## Issue management

We use GitHub to track all of our bugs and feature requests. Each issue we track has a variety of metadata:

- **Epic**. An epic represents a feature area for Istio as a whole. Epics are fairly broad in scope and are basically product-level things.
