1pm: "DevOps vs “Security People"
In 2019, surveys are
saying that 90% of Fortune 500 plan on using containers and things like
Kubernetes, yet there’s still a divide between what “security people”
see that containers provide and what DevOps teams see. Kubernetes has
become the defacto standard for production container deployments and
there are 98 different options (as of February 2019) for hosted
Kubernetes clouds. In many cases a Kubernetes threat model becomes
compromised either by accident or by alibi and even if you wanted to
harden your environment, there’s little guidance. Is there truly such a
thing as a Kubernetes best practice? How can Kubernetes handle multiple
tenants in a cluster? Do hosted Kubernetes services provide enough
security for your work load? This talk will explore Kubernetes’ known
attack vectors, defenses, and see how we can bridge the silos between
security engineers and developers to help in the future.
2pm: panel / chapter meeting TBD
3pm: Networking @ TBD
Please make sure we have your full name so we can send building security a list in advance.
