 Cloud Compliance for Everyone

 We've all read the articles: A misconfigured S3 bucket or open
instance with internet access leads to service downtime, and in many
cases is an entry point for more insidious security breaches. With the
growing complexity of cloud infrastructure, it's becoming increasingly
important to make sure that we ensure that developers can remain
productive while also making sure that a misconfigured firewall rule
doesn't put your organization at risk. Enter governance-as-code, the
concept that allows you to declaratively state the security posture of
your cloud infrastructure, and then have that live along side all your
other code. In this talk I will go over how to get started with Cloud
Custodian: cloudcustdian.io, an OSS tool that you can use to make sure
your instances are well managed by giving your developers the freedom
to use the cloud while providing them confidence to know that they
won't accidentally deploy something bad on the internet. Oh, and also,
it will save you a ton of money.
