 ## TLS Overview
 
-By default, Apache Pulsar clients communicate with the Apache Pulsar service in plain text, which means that all data is sent in the clear. TLS can be used to encrypt this traffic so that it cannot be snooped by a man-in-the-middle attacker.
+By default, Apache Pulsar clients communicate with the Apache Pulsar service in plain text. This means that all data is sent in the clear. You can use TLS to encrypt this traffic to protect the traffic from the snooping of a man-in-the-middle attacker.
 
-TLS can be configured for both encryption and authentication. You may configure just TLS transport encryption, which is covered in this guide. TLS authentication is covered [elsewhere](security-tls-authentication.md). Alternatively, you can use [another authentication mechanism](security-athenz.md) on top of TLS transport encryption.

-> Note that enabling TLS may have a performance impact due to encryption overhead.

 ## TLS concepts
 
-TLS is a form of [public key cryptography](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public-key_cryptography). Encryption is performed using key pairs consisting of a public key and a private key. Messages are encrypted with the public key and can be decrypted with the private key.
