Panel: Kubernetes and Cloud Native Security: A State of the Union - Rags Srinivas, InfoQ; Gareth Rushgrove, Snyk; Kirsten Newcomer, Red Hat; Scott Coulton, Microsoft; & Phil Estes, IBM

Feedback form is now closed.

With the advent of Containers, Kubernetes and microservices, and platforms that build on it, like Helm, openshift, Istio, etc. the attack surfaces have increased and that necessitates a more holistic and disciplined approach towards security. While there is a lot of FUD around cloud native security in general there are approaches to harden security during development and deployment today.

This panel, intended for developers and devops audience will look at the cloud native, containers and Kubernetes security ecosystem. Attendees will walk away with a better understanding of the challenges of some of the tools for the trade and how to overcome some of the security gaps that exist today.
