AppSec & Microservices - Velocity 2016
5 likes4,656 views
This document appears to be a transcript from a presentation on application security and microservices. The summary includes: 1) The presentation discusses security challenges and strategies for microservices architectures, including transport security, authentication, authorization, encryption of data at rest, and perimeter security approaches. 2) Prevention, detection, response and recovery are emphasized as important aspects of a security strategy, along with practices like short-lived credentials, patching, and "repaving" or rebuilding systems on deployments. 3) Managing security risks across polyglot systems is highlighted as a challenge, as is the need to automate security practices and conduct thorough post-mortem analyses of incidents.

"[The employee responsible] didn't follow
procedures and clearly that's not a good thing
but I wouldn't want to pre-empt the proper
investigation and we'll figure out what the right
response is when we've had a chance to dig into
the detail."
