From scanning infrastructure as code (IaC) for security misconfigurations to implementing automated DevSecOps workflows, this two-hour workshop will provide hands-on experience to automate your cloud security. We’ll use this workshop documentation as a guide to walk through. The workshop will cover: Part I - Hands-on: Code scanning with Checkov Overview of DevSecOps and Terraform infrastructure as code Getting started with Checkov to det...

As the global landscape evolves with the emergence of near peer adversaries, the Department of Defense (DoD) is tasked with maintaining superior mission readiness and keeping pace with the rapidly advancing capabilities of potential adversaries. To address these challenges, the DoD is embracing the use of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML) and Generative AI technologies. The DoD has embraced AI/ML in areas like Mission Readi...

Operations platform teams use Infrastructure Lifecycle Management from HashiCorp to control cloud costs by building infrastructure and the related machine images, deploying the resources for an eventual workload, then managing that infrastructure’s lifecycle over time. During this session, we'll explore the typical blueprint we see for customers adopting The Infrastructure Cloud as part of their Infrastructure Lifecycle Management approa...

Operations and security teams use Security Lifecycle Management from HashiCorp to mitigate cloud risk by putting systems in place to protect, inspect, and connect sensitive elements across their environments like secrets, certificates, keys, and customer data. During this session, we’ll cover the typical blueprint we see for customers adopting The Infrastructure Cloud as part of their Security Lifecycle Management approach.You’ll l...

As teams use infrastructure as code (IaC) at scale, Ops and platform teams are tasked with implementing provisioning standards to prevent security breaches, non-compliance, and provisioning practices that drive cloud waste. With a developer-friendly approach to IaC security, operators are able to gain early visibility into possible security issues to ship more secure configurations in less time. Join our hands-on workshop with experts from Has...

Considering recent modifications in the Department of Defense's contracting procedures, our agenda will focus on strategizing ways to enhance technology, processes, and communication to align with the agile methodologies now being adopted across all branches of the military. Furthermore, we will examine the implications of the Fiscal Year 2024 NDAA, signed into law last December, with a particular emphasis on the amendments to Section 229, whi...

When it comes to securing your organization, effective secrets management can't be overlooked. That's why HashiCorp Vault introduced Secrets Lifecycle Management (SLM). Implementing an SLM strategy is straightforward with Vault, a market leader for multi-cloud secrets management. SLM includes: Centralizing and protecting your secrets (API keys, certificates, passwords, etc.) Using identity access management (IAM) to control access to these sec...
