BASTA! Autumn 2019 – Security in DevOps

Some time ago I had the pleasure to speak at the BASTA! Autumn 2019 conference. There, I promised to publish my slides such that they can be used as a reference for developers and security guys like me. And with this blog post I would like to hold up to my promise.

Overall, the talk was about the challenges of “How to bring security into modern DevOps processes”. Hence, I demonstrated how security can be integrated more or less seamlessly into the modern agile software development workflow. I proposed some risk-depended recommendations about which measurements should be established, for example, within the CI pipeline.

SSL Tidbits at the BASTA.NET

A while a go Dominik and I gave an introductory presentation about SSL at the BASTA.NET conference, a developer-oriented event held in Darmstadt twice a year. At that time there were quite some enthusiastic participants but recently we’ve also gotten some inquiries asking for the relevant materials. Although there’s no recording of the session, we’ve decided to put the slides here for those interested who didn’t make it to the talk.

BASTA! Spring 2013

Yesterday I was giving two presentations about Cloud security at the BASTA! Spring 2013 Security Day. While my presentations covered Microsoft Azure security considerations (which also included a part of the Cloud security approach covered in our workshops; slides available here) and some major Cloud incidents (suitable to transport different messages about Cloud security in general ;); slides available here), I also saw Dominick’s very interesting presentation about security aspects and changes in Windows 8. Inspired by that, we hope to be able to publish another blogpost on those aspects with regard to enterprise environments soon — most likely we won’t find any time for it before TROOPERS 😉

Some recent presentations

Just a short notice today on some recent presentations from our team. As some of you might know we regularly give talks at conferences. This not only encompasses highly sophisticated security events like Black Hat or Troopers. Additionally – on our mission for a safer world – we try to spread the (security) word at various industry events that are usually focused on some aspect of the large and ramified IT world, not necessarily equipped with a strong focus on information security.
A number of such events took place in the last few weeks and here’s some links on presentations given there. While not being as technically deep as the average Black Hat or Troopers attendee might expect, we still hope that one or another valued reader finds them useful (pls note that some parts are in German).
