20:00 Security Issues with Amazon S3
Ekkard Schnedermann (Elephantshop)

You probably have been using AWS S3, one of the most established cloud services. We will show you the risks involved in practical examples. You can take home a view on S3 very different from what you can read in the docs.

Security practitioners are challenged by Amazon S3 to maintain a balance between the advantages of cloud storage and the necessary caution. Unfortunately, S3 access control is nice to set and hard to maintain. We will touch on a number of issues, which you may have known, but did not think of as affecting security.

Ekkard is a long-time security practitioner venturing into cloud, Founder of Elephantshop, hold certifications as CISA, CGEIT, CISSP, AWS Certified Solutions Architect, Twitter: @ekkards.
