Presentations
This session will illustrate how to optimize your data platform for performance, scalability, flexibility, and reliability in OpenStack and OpenShift environments.
Discover how Pure Storage integrates into the OpenStack ecosystem and why it stands out as the ideal storage solution for OpenStack deployments.
A lot has been made about Broadcom's price increases for VMware, and there has also been a lot of attention paid to the technological aspects of migrating to OpenStack. Instead, let's take a look at the economics of the migration and how much it actually ends up costing organizations to migrate both in terms of licensing costs, as well as switching costs.

Scientific progress relies on incremental improvements, famously described by Newton’s "on the shoulders of giants." While this is true for scientific literature, code-driven analysis has not kept pace. As a scientist who transitioned from fieldwork to modeling land-atmosphere exchange, I've seen how research code often lacks long-term maintenance, limiting reuse. Research teams develop code over short timescales, publish, and move on. This talk proposes a paradigm shift in scientific coding practices, incorporating software engineering for sustainable, collaborative open-source code.
In cloud-native development, managing vulnerabilities is essential for secure, scalable environments. This talk covers the key elements of an effective vulnerability management strategy, including asset tracking, SBOMs, and risk prioritization, and provides actionable insights on implementing monitoring pipelines to detect and address threats early.
The audience will learn about the collaboration the OpenInfra Foundation has fostered with universities to get students involved in Open Source before graduation. After reaching over 100 students, we have learned a lot and are eager to share improvements and plans for the future.
The path from individual contributor (IC) to leadership in security engineering is often seen as a one-way trajectory—but what happens when the reality of management doesn’t align with your passion for deep technical work? Many security practitioners strive for leadership roles to drive meaningful change, only to find themselves frustrated by the bureaucratic and interpersonal challenges that come with management. Some return to IC roles, seeking hands-on impact, only to realize that true influence often requires a seat at the leadership table.
CyberChef is known as the “The Cyber Swiss Army Knife” and is a simple, intuitive web app for carrying out all “cyber” operations within a web browser. The tool enables technical and non-technical analysts to manipulate data in complex ways without dealing with complex tools or algorithms.
Kubernetes is the de facto operating system of the cloud, and more and more organizations are running their workloads on Kubernetes. While Kubernetes offers many benefits, new users may introduce security risks like cluster misconfiguration, leaked credentials, cryptojacking, container escapes, and vulnerable clusters. This workshop will teach you the fundamentals of Kubernetes security, from protecting your cluster to securing your workloads.
Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) is increasing in importance to all areas of Security, particularly Cybersecurity. Organizations use OSINT to hunt for threats and to conduct red team exercises. As the amount of information on the global Internet grows, developing OSINT skills can help attendees to perform better in their jobs and help to secure their organization on multiple levels. This session will present some of the most impactful OSINT techniques and tools, including newer AL and LLM methodologies, in a guided, immersive, hands-on format. The workshop guided and hands-on.
