SANS Virtualization and Cloud Summit 2013

More organizations than ever are deploying virtualization technologies and some are taking this to the next level by building private cloud infrastructure. Many are also leveraging hybrid and public cloud models to save money and gain efficiency in platform and application hosting, or by using Software-as-a-Service tools. But leveraging virtualization and cloud capabilities has a number of security and compliance ramifications. Many security teams are finding that cloud service providers do not have comparable security controls in place or that the providers aren't able or willing to share audit data with them. Contract requirements may not be taking security and compliance into account either, and there are a lot of risk management questions going unanswered.

Who Should Attend?
Security managers who need to understand and advise on the risks of virtualization and cloud computing models and scenarios
Security analysts and engineers who need to understand security controls for and in the cloud
Auditors and compliance analysts who need to understand how to audit and assess virtualization and cloud environments
Operations staff who need to gain insight into security capabilities of cloud providers and how other organizations are tackling virtualization and cloud
