We are excited to announce the February meetup scheduled for Wednesday February 19th.
There'll be 2 presentations on Container Security:
*Building Rootless, Stateless, and Immutable Containers
*DevSecOps and CloudNative Security Best Practices
1st Presentation:
Building Rootless, Stateless, and Immutable Containers
Increased Portability, Improved Scalability, Simple and Fast Deployment, Enhanced Productivity, Reduced Infrastructural Cost with Improved Resource Utilization - hard to disagree with the values Containerization brings on the table! However, we all know that Great Power comes with Great Responsibility!
Containers can elevate your IT Delivery and Operations drastically at the same time can also impose a significant risk if not done rightly! Let's look at those Security and Risk adversity principles are and ee how can we build Containers that are Rootless, Stateless and Immutable!

2nd Presentation:
DevSecOps and CloudNative Security Best Practices
DevOps practices are well known but not so much the practice of DevSecOps. Microservices applications have
such a wide attack surface that using manual and traditional security practices is just like putting a square peg in a round hole.
This talk will discuss DevSecOps in a CloudNative environment with an emphasis on Kubernetes' best practices. Demos will accompany the presentation.
