πŸ”₯ Birds of a Feather: security engineers' open jam πŸš€

Real-world security challenges and insights, shared with peers 🀝πŸ”₯

πŸš€ The BOF is fully booked – we’ve hit maximum registrations! βœ… Thank you for the overwhelming interest. Stay tuned for the next one in April! πŸŽ‰

πŸ” What happened at the BOF in February?

Our go-with-the-flow approach is working well. Instead of pre-determined agendas, everyone shares their current work and challenges, sparking organic and productive discussions. πŸ’‘πŸ’¬

At our last BOF, we dove into:

  • πŸ”Ή Container patching πŸ› οΈ
  • πŸ”Ή Secrets detection in code repositories πŸ”‘
  • πŸ”Ή Risk registers & tracking accepted risks πŸ“‹
  • πŸ”Ή Preventing API exposure to the internet 🌐🚫
  • πŸ”Ή Cyber Risk Quantification (putting a πŸ’² value on security findings) πŸ’°

Birds of security feather flock together

🚫 No sales pitches.
🚫 No conversation hogs.
βœ… Just great discussions! 🎯

🚫 Who is this NOT for?

🚫 SOC analysts & pentesters β€” this is an engineering-focused session.
🚫 This is not a beginner-friendly session (no β€œhow to start in security” or β€œwhich certs to get”).

We’re here to tackle real-world engineering challenges together! πŸ’ͺ

🏒 What to expect?

βœ… A chill space with a table, chairs, and like-minded peers.
βœ… Water & tea to keep the ideas flowing. β˜•
βœ… A snack from the corner chai shop πŸͺ (shared contribution!)
