Cloud Abstract: The Frogs Who Desired A King: A Virtualization and Cloud Computing Security Fable

Aesop wrote a little ditty about some discontented frogs who lived in a pond.  They asked Jupiter for a King.  They got one.  They didn't like it.  They got a replacement. It ate them.  The moral of this story is "be careful what you wish for."

The corresponding analog is that of the future state of security in a cloud based virtualized world.  It's coming, but it's not going to look much like what security looks like today and it's certainly not what people are expecting.  In fact,it may consume us all because we're actually unprepared for what we're asking for.

You'll laugh, you'll cry, you will want to know where I got the frogs for my slides...but best of all you will be one step closer to cloud readiness. Topics covered will include:
- Key Ingredients in the Cloud Recipe
- When Is An Application Cloud Ready?
- Cloud Archetypes
- Mapping the Archetypes to Security
- Public V/S Private Cloud
- How is "Cloud" Different than Today's Outsourced Services
- Can the Cloud Transfer Risk?
- Cloud Things that Can Go "Bump" in the Night
- Public v/s Private: Does it matter?
- Cloud Simplexity?? Is it a problem?
- Web 3.0, Infrastructure 2.0, and Security 1.x?? Really?
- Break Glass, Apply common sense.
