Abstract

As cloud adoption grows, adoption of multi-account infrastructure grows. Securing these accounts is a good way to ensure a secure platform is built and is helping development teams move securely and quickly.

Additionally, cloud accounts often offer security isolation. Thus, a proper cloud account design can both help security and development teams build.

In this session, we'll cover use cases and considerations for how to (1) design and securely "vend" cloud accounts, and (2) design secure account architectures that enable "secure by design" and automating security and integrating security into development. We'll also cover unique security challenges that come with multi-account architectures and best practices.
