Sessions
In this talk, we explore how network data can be utilized to secure cloud workloads. We will walk through practical deployment approaches and scenarios for gathering and utilizing network data in cloud environments. We will also show concrete examples of how data plane visibility gained from network data can materially improve the visibility, detection, and response capabilities of security teams responsible for cloud workloads.
