Advanced Vulnerability Management in Cloud Foundry

Forbes Insights reported in 2016 that 44% of all data breaches are caused by known software vulnerabilities. The Security Triage and Automation team is helping to secure Cloud Foundry by building the next level of automated vulnerability management tools and processes that allow Enterprise customers to patch against vulnerabilities early and often. This session will cover the CF security philosophy, background of security management for Cloud Foundry, and a demo of how the team has automated the process from data ingestion through to publicized fix information. Molly and Stephen will talk about how their unique team is changing how OSS projects secure against known vulnerabilities.
