Sponsored Keynote: From Google to NIST — The Future of Cloud Native Security

The presentation discusses the latest trends in cloud native security and the importance of applying at least five policy checks to achieve zero trust.

• Security is moving up the stack and becoming more application context aware
• Zero trust is about people process and runtime controls
• There are five policy checks that should be applied to achieve zero trust: authenticity, encryption, service level identity, end user authentication, and end user authorization
• These checks should be applied at every single hop in the infrastructure
• Active standards are evolving to introduce identity-based segmentation

The speaker mentions that the renewed focus on software supply chain and S-bomb is great, but there are still pain points around it. However, tools and practices are being developed to deliver software securely. This illustrates the importance of continuously improving security practices and adapting to new challenges.

Learn about the latest trends on cloud native security from creators of the NIST microservices standards. In this talk, Zack Butcher from Tetrate will dive into the driving forces behind the new standards of microservices security, how the standards are evolving, and what you must know about projects such as Istio & Envoy to get ahead of the curve.
