Sessions
The dangers of the cloud are many. Are you prepared for the email from AWS saying your access keys are in GitHub? Do you know what to do when your bill spikes 500% overnight? What about when GuardDuty tells you your middleware server is engaged in intimate traffic patterns with the Kremlin?
Panic is an appropriate and very human response to all of the above. Or you could attend this talk and we'll talk through a cloud-centric version of Preparation, Identification, Containment, Eradication. Then, if one of these unfortunate events happens to your company, you'll be ready to rise to the occasion and lead your responders to victory.
