Running at Light Speed - Cloud Native Security Patterns

Explore cloud native security patterns in this OWASP NLChapter meeting talk. Dive into essential topics such as container isolation, control plane hardening, network segmentation, and encrypted communications. Learn about the reconciler pattern, container sandboxing limitations, and the importance of build integrity and attestation. Discover user namespaces, rootless containers, and effective authentication and authorization strategies. Examine the controller pattern, admission controllers, and PodSecurity policy design. Gain insights into the sidecar pattern, secrets management, and dynamic secrets implementation. Apply these concepts through practical examples, including retrieving and mounting secrets in cloud native environments.
