Attacking and Defending Containerised Apps and Serverless Tech

Two-Day Interactive Training -- OWASP New Zealand Day 2020

Abstract

Both attacking and securing an infrastructure, or applications leveraging containers/serverless technology, require a specific skill set and a deep understanding of the underlying architecture. This training will be extremely hands-on, to help you understand all there is to attack and secure containerised and serverless applications.

Overview

With organisations rapidly moving toward micro-service architectures for their applications, container and serverless technologies seem to be taking over at a rapid rate. Leading container technologies like Docker have risen in popularity and have been widely used, because they have help package and deploy consistent-state applications. Serverless and orchestration technologies, such as Kubernetes, support massive scale-up. This, in turn, can massively increase the overall attack surface, unless security is given the attention required.

Security continues to remain a key challenge that both organisations and security practitioners faced with containerised and serverless deployments. While container-orchestrated deployments may be vulnerable to security threats that plague typical application deployments, they face several specific security threats related to: the containerisation daemon, shared kernel, shared resources, secrets management, insecure configurations, role management issues, and many more! Serverless deployments, on the other hand, face risks such as: insecure serverless deployment configurations, inadequate function monitoring and logging, broken authentication, function event data injection, and insecure application secrets storage. Attacking an infrastructure, or applications leveraging containers and serverless technology, requires a specific skill-set and a deep understanding of the underlying architecture.

This training has been created with the objective of understanding both offensive and defensive security for container-orchestrated and serverless deployments. It will be a two-day program detailing specific theory elements, with extensive hands-on exercises modeling real-world threat scenarios. Attendees will learn ways in which containerised and serverless deployments can be attacked, so they can understand how to make them secure yet scalable, efficient, and effective.

Target Audience

This course is aimed at Developers, DevOps Engineers, Penetration Testers, Security Practitioners, and other who use container or serverless technology as part of their product deployments, and want to gain a good understanding on how to secure their services and deployments.

Course Details

Dates: Wednesday and Thursday, 19-20 February 2020

Time: 8:45 a.m. to 5:30 pm.

Course Fee: NZ $1,250.00 (plus EventBrite fees)

Prerequisite Skills:

  • Students should have a basic understanding of Linux environment and know their way around the terminal
  • A basic understanding of ‘OWASP TOP-10 Vulnerabilities’ and ‘Basics of Docker’ will be helpful, but not necessary

Attendees Should Bring:

  • Attendees should bring a laptop, with an updated browser for accessing the lab environment(s). We have observed that Chrome or Firefox works best.
