Please join us on Friday, October 6, 2023 for Super Cyber Friday.

Our topic of discussion will be “Hacking Container Security: An hour of critical thinking about how to shine a light into an image’s black box.”

Joining David Spark (@dspark), producer of CISO Series for this discussion will be:

Mackenzie Jackson, Developer Advocate, GitGuardian

David Cross (@Mrdbcross), CISO, Oracle SaaS Cloud

In preparation for our discussion, think about the following:

What are containers and how do we use them in modern app development?

Why are containers becoming a security issue? How are hackers infiltrating container images, and what are the vulnerabilities in the containerization process that they exploit?

What sensitive information can containers hold?

Docker is a widely used container platform; what are the components of Docker images, and why do they require proactive security measures?

What can you do to reverse the container process and understand what’s inside?

Where is your organization exposing data through containers?

How are secrets being managed in containers?

How can you secure their container registries using honeytokens, and what role do these decoy credentials play in identifying unauthorized access attempts?

It all starts at 1 PM Eastern/10 AM Pacific. At the end of the hour [2 PM Eastern/11 AM Pacific] we'll switch gears to our meetup where everyone will get a chance to chat face to face.

Best bad ideas get first responses in "Department of YES" or “Beat the Bad Idea”.

The BEST bad idea wins an award and a really awesome CISO Series jacket. Also, if you register early by the Tuesday (5pm PT) of that week’s video chat, you will be entered into a raffle where one lucky register will win a jacket (Winners must be US residents. Repeat winners get a $25 Amazon gift card).

Super Cyber Fridays are open discussions where all viewers and listeners are welcome to become participants. Before the scheduled event, connect your webcam and microphone (avoid Bluetooth). During the discussion, if you have a question or comment, let it be known in the chat room and our producer will do his best to get as many of you into the conversation. We look forward to you joining us.
