Like every geek in town, you got the same secret dream, right? Ya want to know how to design for the Cloud. Huh? You can admit it — you’d like to — but you never dreamed it could be possible, did you? Well, on the 26th, I’m goin’ to give you your chance. - with regards to Joe in American Graffiti

What is unique about the Cloud? Aren’t they just someone else’s computers? Hey, their computers, your data, what could go wrong? But beware – OH, the HORROR. Cloud providers offer almost unlimited functionality and the ability to operate with a few keystrokes or commands but what can be used for good can also be used to cause chaos and insecurities. Legacy tools, policies, controls, and thinking just does not cut it in today’s agile, XaaS-driven world. What is a cybersecurity geek to do? Come and see how it is really a totally different head.
