Cloud Native Security Whitepaper #138

Closed ultrasaurus closed 3 years ago

ultrasaurus commented 5 years ago

In 2018, SAFE WG focused on understand security, given modern (cloud native) enterprise infra, and synthesized into a common understanding; however, much of what we have learned is buried in meeting notes and presentations.

We would like to now communicate what we’ve understood to the rest of the world. One step will be to draft a SAFE whitepaper that covers over-arching concerns. Some of us met (march 22, 2019) to brainstorm a whitepaper outline:

@pragashj @dshaw @ultrasaurus, Jessica Walker and Sara Dornsife met to discuss white paper content - see 3/22/2018 meeting notes

ultrasaurus commented 5 years ago

Moved outline into separate doc where we can elaborate into a full whitepaper.

[OUTDATED]NOTE: As of July 2020, we have moved to a new document: Cloud Native Security Whitepaper - @dshaw]

EDIT (@lumjjb): New document is at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MEeqWvUavXK5TkuFIfoJbtxCT-2FdTw7jgYP3kxtbmk/edit?usp=sharing

rficcaglia commented 5 years ago

just a process question - is it more desirable to use Google Docs vs. markdown docs that can be PR'd? is the idea to minimize git activity until there is a solid draft document rather than have the full "sausage making" process clutter up the git stream?

pragashj commented 5 years ago

That is the idea, please feel free to chime in on the doc and help shape it.

Enterprise Core areas of concern for Enterprise to adopt a cloud-native model are maintaining the current process and procedures while meeting the business objective. Keeping the interoperability, data loss or leakage, and security risk exposure at a minimum when new standards and practices are introduced throughout the organization. Microbusiness Small businesses tend to focus on short term goals and innovation to meet intense competition. The lack of resources, budget, technology depth, and best practice hinders their ability to adapt to cloud-native solutions. Small business requires repeatable patterns and small IT footprint to solve the challenges.
Finance Core areas of concern for financial industries essential to successful cloud-native adoption are unauthorized disclosure of information, fraud, and fund availability. Fraud can directly impact fund availability, making the integrity of financial transactions of paramount importance.
Healthcare Core areas of concern for healthcare industries essential to successful cloud-native adoption are unauthorized disclosure of information, timeliness, availability of records, and records accuracy. Due to the nature and practices of the healthcare industry, the availability of records and their associated content is how medical decisions are made. In the absence of such information, new records are developed. Academia and education Core areas of concern for educational institutions for successful cloud-native adoption can depend upon the intended end user. Institutions catering to minors may have additional legal requirements to protect minors’ confidentiality, thereby making access control critical. Beyond this, institutions should focus on the availability of educational content to end-users. Public Sector Core areas of concern for Public Sector organizations to implement cloud-native adoptions are security, data sovereignty, compliances, and vendor lock-in. The barriers emerge from agencies placing regulations to protect the public interest. In the public sector, it is essential to maintain harmony and trust between public and government entities.
