The Zero Trust Challenge - There are so many real world challenges and problems to solve with this Swiss Army Knife - it’s far more than a Secrets Store!

Speaker Bio
Starting I.T life in Data Management for Clinical Trials kicked open the doors to Data Analytics and then Hadoop System Admin lead to Kafka Admin. From here the Operations team evolved towards DevOps and realising a Cloud Operating Model so With Terraform in hand I Operationalized the ELK stack and HA Metrics Management before focusing on IAM and all the fun that comes with Zero Trust Secrets Management. Vault and Terraform lead me to doors of Hashicorp where I’m now wrangling with Service Mesh Solutions and working with Global Banks to successfully solve the Zero Trust Challenge.
