AWS Sydney: Building Cloud Security - From Startups to Enterprises

🍕🍻 SERVING PIZZA AND BEER: The AWS Meetup LIVE Experience! 🍻🍕
We are beyond thrilled to announce the return of our 2024 monthly meetups, LIVE and in-person at the AWS offices in Sydney next month! It's time to reconnect with fellow AWS enthusiasts, enjoy insightful talks, and savour some delicious pizza and ice-cold beer.

Building strong foundations using the AWS Security Baseline
Not everyone using AWS needs to be a security expert, but everyone using AWS should be thinking about security. At AWS we listened to feedback from thousands of interactions with Startups and built a set of prescriptive guidance to help smaller customers and individuals harness the power of AWS while avoiding the most common misconfigurations. Dave Barton, Principal Solutions Architect, AWS will walk you through some simple, but powerful steps to securing your AWS account, allowing you to focus on building and learning.

Cloud security in large enterprise
As a cloud technology expert, how do you get your job done in a large enterprise dealing with the restrictions and delays imposed by cyber and infrastructure teams? You want to deliver secure solutions, but half of the hoops you need to jump through don't seem to improve security. This presentation will explain what your central teams are trying to achieve, and what options you have to meet your own team's goals when half the organization seems to want to stop you. Hear how things look from the other side, why being special is a bad thing, and why the boring stuff matters. How can you use this to succeed and be valued most of all?

Agenda:
18:00 - 18:05 - Introductions
18:05 - 18:30 - Dave Barton, Principal Solutions Architect, AWS
18:35 - 19:00 - Owen Hollands, Cloud Professional and Cynic
19:00-20:00 - Networking

Look forward to seeing you all!

Cheers,
