72% of the 21 million U.S. health care records that have been compromised since 2009 should have been trivially protected using comprehensive encryption of the data before being written to disk (see: http://1.usa.gov/a2UGEG). A busy cloud compute node from OpenStack or Amazon EC2 might spin up thousands of instances per day. Ephemeral, block, and object storage - each and every one of these should always be encrypted before being written to the underlying physical media. The good news is multiple excellent file and disk encryption solutions exist in Linux, such as eCryptfs and dm-crypt, making encrypting everything simple and cost-effective.
This session is designed for security professionals, IT decision makers and solution architects. We'll discuss encryption and key management best practices and examine use cases for companies that store sensitive and regulated data in the cloud.
