Security engineering: from encryption to software architecture patterns
Public training on security and cryptography engineering conducted jointly by Anastasiia and Jean-Philippe. We focused on solving practical security engineering challenges rather than academic cryptography. We talked about SSDLC and risk management, cryptography and typical cryptographic mistakes, using and misusing APIs, building defence-in-depth for distributed applications.
Delivering security products without shooting yourself in the foot
Dmytro Shapovalov, our senior infrastructure engineer, talks about improving the infrastructure for developing, testing, and delivering security tools. Our experience of smoothing the difference between security idealism and engineering friendliness.
Protecting sensitive data in modern multi-component systems
A talk for solution architects and technical leads, in which we took a deep look into data lifecycle, risk, trust, and how they affect security architecture, encryption, and key management techniques. We illustrated typical SDL patterns: narrowing trust, monitoring intrusions, zero knowledge architectures, distributing trust. The goal of the talk was to provide a general thinking framework and enough ideas about tools for senior engineers for them to be able to plan their solutions securely, in relation to the sensitive data inside.
DevOps and security: from the trenches to command centers
DevOps movement emerged as an attempt to build the bridge between people who write code, people who maintain the infrastructure for running it, and people who make the business decisions. These changes have put the emphasis on the new set of techniques and values. These techniques and values can either be beneficial or problematic for the security posture.
