"How to write a secured Terraform module"
Planning, provisioning, and changing infrastructure are becoming vital to rapid cloud application development. Incorporating Terraform infrastructure-as-code into software development promotes transparency and agility on cloud development. It can also enable another way of writing security as code. In this talk, we’ll cover some common IaC risks found in the wild. We will write a new Terraform module and will share a way to secure it from common misconfigs in CI/CD pipeline.
Barak:
A tech-leader and open-source enthusiast based in Tel Aviv, Barak’s passion for software began at the age of 14. Starting with a BSc in Computer Science and MBA in IT, he went on to serve as tech lead of big data engineering at the IDF C4I & Cyber Security Directorate Then continued as data scientist and software architect at Fortscale and RSA Security. In 2019 Barak left RSA and joined the founding team of Bridgecrew, an innovative cloud security company as Co-founder and CTO.
Corcoran:
Corcoran is a recovering Microsoft sysadmin, now full AWS fanboi. He’s helped organisations build big data platforms, migrate massive monolithic e-commerce platforms and build secure landing zones on AWS.
