PRO SESSION (CloudX): How We Implemented Zero Trust Security Using Cilium

Wednesday November 6, 2024 11:00am - 11:25am PST

CloudX -- Stage 1

Lakmal Warusawithana, WSO2, Technology Evangelist

Implementing a zero trust approach is essential for security, as it involves verifying and validating every request, irrespective of its origin or location.

In the initial implementation of Choreo, our internal Developer Platform as a Service, we faced challenges in controlling all network access and enforcing authentication, authorization, and seamless network traffic encryption at scale, which is vital for the Choreo cloud service. However, by employing Cilium, K8s, and a cell-based architecture, we were able to develop a scalable platform that upholds zero trust security principles.

The combination of Cilium's eBPF-powered layer 3, 4, and 7 network policies, Hubble Observability, IPSec security, and a cell-based architecture enabled us to address all the critical elements of a zero trust platform successfully.

In this talk, I will detail all the challenges we faced and the strategies we employed to overcome them.

PRO SESSION (CloudX): Harnessing Sandboxing for Secure Application Deployment

Wednesday November 6, 2024 11:30am - 11:55am PST

CloudX -- Stage 1

Ajay Kidave, Clace, Founder

Sandboxing allows for secure software development and deployment. Running code in a sandbox allows installing and running applications while controlling what the applications can do. Sandboxing allows administrators to deploy an application and specify what fine grained operations it can perform. We introduce an open-source project built in go that implements sandboxing features to allow applications to be developed and deployed easily and securely.

PRO SESSION (CloudX): Simplifying Multi-Cloud Security and Networking using an AI-Powered Approach

Wednesday November 6, 2024 1:30pm - 1:55pm PST

CloudX -- Stage 1

Bhavin Desai, Google, Cross-Cloud Network Product Lead

Organizations increasingly adopt multi-cloud strategies to enhance agility and avoid vendor lock-in. However, this complexity creates challenges in networking, security posture management, and application development. This abstract highlights the potential of service-centric networking to streamline secure connectivity across hybrid and multi-cloud environments. It also explores AI-powered network security capabilities, including zero-trust architecture, next-generation firewalls, secure web proxies, and data loss prevention. By integrating these solutions, organizations can proactively defend their cloud networks, protect workloads, secure data, and ensure user security, ultimately accelerating distributed application development while maintaining a robust security posture.

KEYNOTE (CLOUDX): Sicura -- Automating Compliance for Cloud Image Building

Wednesday November 6, 2024 2:30pm - 2:55pm PST

CloudX -- Main Stage

Kendall Moore, Sicura, CTO

There are too many possibilities for base images in cloud environments and not enough time to validate which ones fulfill all of my requirements. Worse yet, I know that I have policies set by my security team that my infrastructure will be beholden to. So now what? I built an open source policy engine and image generator to implement directly into my build pipelines. I can start with any base image, apply my security policies that are verified by my security team, and now have a baseline that I can rapidly scale my infrastructure from.

OPEN SESSION (CloudX):: Managing Data Security in Multi-Cloud Environments

Thursday November 7, 2024 10:30am - 10:55am PST

API World -- Main Stage

Kevin Hunt, Cloud Storage Security, CTO

Ransomware attacks, breaches, data exfiltration, and insider disclosures are occurring every day around the world. Legacy thinking on providing data security has been focused on the application and platform or operating system. This leads to a somewhat chaotic data security landscape that is likely to have holes and missed handoffs. Modern enterprise systems use and store data using the most effective platform that delivers the convenience and performance required. This open-ended approach to data handling should be addressed through an equally open and flexible approach to securing data regardless of where it is stored or how and when it is used.
Businesses should take a holistic view of their data security to ensure that unintended gaps and inconsistencies that may open the door for threat propagation are detected and mitigated. Enacting multiple layers of data management practices ensures that both stored and inflight data is clean.
This keynote will draw on the Data Security Maturity Model (DSMM) to illustrate the challenges developers and users face in the open landscape of current application deployments. Placing a strong focus on a layered framework that provides consistent and robust security for data as it is used, this approach incorporates seamless malware scanning and detection that provides a constant watch for irregularities and threats.

[Virtual] KEYNOTE (CLOUDX): Trend Micro -- Utilizing a New Threat Model for Software Supply Chain in Cloud-native Systems

Thursday November 14, 2024 3:00pm - 3:25pm PST

VIRTUAL CloudX -- Main Stage

Mike Milner, Trend Micro, VP Cloud Technology

As cloud native environments become more secure, attackers are shifting their focus to infiltrate the software supply chain. Securing the software supply chain starts at the beginning of the development process and continues throughout the application’s development lifecycle, but the complexity means that it is easy to miss links in this chain.

This session will construct a threat model that includes everything from the developer work stations, the code and open source libraries that make up an application, to the entire pipeline of building and deploying an app and the teams that maintain it.

Attendees of this session will:
• Understand the steps needed to manage and ensure the security of a broader software supply chain considering quickly evolving tech innovations.
• Learn how to determine the best tools for tracking the software development lifecycle in cloud-native settings.
• Discover how new generative AI tools can help automate some of the monotonous tasks such as fixing or updating older or broken code.
