2022-11-16: Cloud-native Security and Policy: A Primer (Kwisnek)

Date: Wednesday, November 16, 2022

Speaker: Evan Kwisnek is a system architect and engineer at Everwatch Solutions, Inc.

Modern system architectures have exceeded the bounds of traditional data centers and become increasingly reliant on cloud service providers and their platforms. Networks previously confined to on-premises facilities now span the globe, exposing critical business functions to malicious actors, unexpected outages, and costly downtime. Databases holding critical and sensitive customer data live in regional facilities over which we have no control.

How do we meet the security engineering and policy governance challenges that cloud-native, hybrid, and edge deployments present while limiting complexity, speeding adoption among engineers, and providing our customers with secure, reliable, and performant systems? Watch Evan Kwisnek as he explains practical and actionable solutions to these problems.
