We are accepting talks on the following topics:

  1. Technology - Algorithms, Products, Technology Stack signify how organizations manage Risk.
  2. Law of the Land - is a very significant driver for how organizations assess Risk. Here, State capacity, Institutions and Intent, all play a part.
  3. Internal Policies - both Technology and Law of the Land inform and nudge internal company policies to work, organize in a certain way, and implement, manage and assess Risk.
  4. Bureaucracy - while bureaucracy is typically thought of as having a negative connotation, in reality, no organization - be it the government or the private sector - can ever function without a bureaucracy. The structure of the bureaucracy plays an important role in managing risk.
  5. Budget - While individuals sustain themselves on ‘food flows’, organizations sustain themselves on ‘cash flows’. Thus, no amount of good intent is sufficient without the required structure in place supported by a budget allocation.

Content will be peer reviewed by industry practitioners.

Answer Key Security Questions by Building an Automated Asset Inventory

We cannot protect what we don’t know exists. A key part of building security into our products is to make key security decisions based on data and not intuition or tribal knowledge alone. In Razorpay, we have hundreds of microservices deployed across multiple EKS clusters, some of which deploy multiple times each day. Any manually built inventory will be out of date within a few hours. In this ta… more
