Architecting for cloud native requires a completely different perspective on security. The attack surface, and the potential attack vectors have completely changed. Most of the past assumptions around people, processes, infrastructure and more are no longer valid. You have to assume any vulnerability will be exploited, and trust no-one — whether external or internal. You have to look at threat modeling to inform and prioritize the approach, and implement security based on defense in depth.
This session will explore what steps we have taken to implement a “Zero Trust” model when we re-architected the integration portfolio to create what is now Cloud Pak for Integration, and how customers can build upon these in their own integration solutions.
