Beyond Passwords: Advancing Cloud Security with Identity-Based Access
Join us to look closer at improving cloud-native security, focusing on how to use identities instead of traditional passwords or keys to access cloud resources. We'll look closely at Google Cloud's Workload Identity and Cloud SQL Auth Proxy, showing how they help GitLab pipelines and apps connect safely and easily without needing long-lasting credentials. This talk will give you a clear understanding of these tools and how they make cloud security simpler and stronger.
