Solving specific use cases with CFEngine policy and providing reusable modules
With the release of build.cfengine.com, I have been working to migrate some of our own security related policy into modules of their own. CFEngine Build and the cfbs tooling allows us to organize policy into modules, which are easy to update independently and share with other users. Let’s take the scenic route and look at what life is like with cfbs. One of our security policies requires that the password hashing algorithm in /etc/login.defs is set to SHA512.
Kubernetes Master Class Security & Observability feat. Tigera
In this RKE-focused workshop for networking, security, and observability on containers, Kubernetes, and Calico, you will work with a Calico and RKE expert to learn how to design, deploy, and observe security and networking policies in an RKE environment. This 90-minute hands-on lab comes with your own provisioned Calico Cloud environment, designed to provide more complete knowledge on how to implement:– Workload access controls– Compliance and reporting– Run-time visualization of traffic flow and security policies– Service-level observability– Anomaly detection and live troubleshooting You will come away from this workshop with an understanding of how others in your industry are doing Kubernetes, container and cloud security, and observability in RKE, and how you can implement it in your own organization.
Kubernetes Master Class Managing Cluster Security at Scale
A Kubernetes cluster has various attack surfaces, from the API server to application traffic. It's important to understand what these potential areas of attack are, and from there, work out the best ways to mitigate the risks. This is especially important when managing multiple clusters. You want to ensure that you are following the right methods, and then standardizing those security approaches to be applied to all your clusters. In this session, we will cover some of the Kubernetes attack vectors and detail how to secure your clusters.

Visualizing IoT security metrics with Grafana at Network to Code
As the number of connected gadgets in our homes, offices, and industrial networks continues to grow exponentially, keeping IoT devices secure has become a vital part of our everyday lives. However, our webcams, printers, and smart plugs often lack security features due to their fast time to market, making them particularly vulnerable to attack. And because security metrics themselves can be tricky to assess, tracking IoT device security is increasingly a challenge.
